well, yes it would help. But I think, this is an ugly workaround 
instead of an solution of a problem ... :( I think, a package (or in 
LO's case a lot of packages ... ;) ), which I want to install, has 
the right install instruction for an package manager, so it gets 
installed the Right Way™ ... ;) I think, you can not say an clueless 
Joe User, that he should change permissions as root to get LO start 
from the menu ... :(
Sorry for the inconvenience
Thomas.

I realize it might be quite painful for them, but maybe you could 
buy them a disco tape, so they'd feel a little bit more at home.
