OOo pitches itself as a suite, and there's only one thing to install.

Apparently you can build from source an individual project, but you need
to have installed the entire thing first, due to dependencies. Plus
havethe Java SDK, X libs and headers, yadda yadda. And:

  3 Gb free disk space, add approximately 2 Gb to build with
--with-lang=ALL option. Approximately 8 Gb with full crash report
enabled, --enable-crashdump.

Which I do have on another partition. But maybe I'll try it out on
another machine first. But what I want to know is, which one do *you*
like? Why?
