Basics
First, download OOo_2.0_Win32Intel_install.exe from OpenOffice.org Website.
Execute the downloaded installer - it creates a directory named OpenOfficeorg 2.0 Installation Files, which includes several files.
The ones you need are:
openofficeorg1.cab openofficeorg2.cab openofficeorg20.msi openofficeorg3.cab openofficeorg4.cab
excerpt from package.xml, adjust your paths accordingly:
<package id="ooo-2.x"
name="OpenOffice.org 2.x"
revision="1"
reboot="false"
priority="0">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="OpenOffice.org 2.0" />
<install cmd='"msiexec" /i \\Server\wpkg\pkg\OOo_2.0\install_en\openofficeorg20.msi /qn'>
<exit code="0" />
</install>
<remove cmd='"msiexec" /x{CE91484F-B0CF-4494-8BA6-7242EE913626} /qn' />
<upgrade cmd='"msiexec" /i \\Server\wpkg\pkg\OOo_2.0\install_en\openofficeorg20.msi /qn' />
</package>
The uninstall ID can be checked from the file setup.ini in the directory OpenOfficeorg 2.0 Installation Files
Question Does "uninstall ID" mean "{CE91484F-B0CF-4494-8BA6-7242EE913626}" or "OpenOffice.org 2.0"?
Localized builds
The best way to install a localized build (in my opinion) is to also install localized language pack. Then the user can choose if he wants to have the English interface or the localized one. An example for Estonian language pack:
<package id="ooo-2.x-et"
name="OpenOffice.org 2.0 Language Pack (Eesti)"
revision="1"
reboot="false"
priority="0">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="OpenOffice.org 2.0 Language Pack (Eesti)" />
<install cmd='"msiexec" /i \\Server\wpkg\pkg\OOo_2.0\langpack_et\openofficeorg20.msi /qn'>
<exit code="0" />
</install>
<remove cmd='"msiexec" /x{9F5CAB24-B19E-42FD-AF8D-774C5C36A7FB} /qn' />
<upgrade cmd="" />
</package>
User Note: I tried this out and fond that it didn't add the short cuts in the start menu... instead it was on the root of C. So I'm currentily tring "OpenOfficeorg 2.0 Installation Files\setup.exe" /quiet" for the install. But the above remove scripts seems to work well
Customizing
According to the [2 setup guide], you can customize an installation using Microsoft's [[1]] tool.
Alternative install
Here's another possibility:
<package id="openoffice" name="Openoffice 2" revision="1" priority="0" reboot="false">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="OpenOffice.org 1.9.122" />
<install cmd='cmd /c mkdir "%TEMP%\ooo"' />
<install cmd='"c:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" e -y -o"%TEMP%"\ooo \\server\share\openoffice2\OOo_1.9.122_Win32Intel_install.zip"' />
<install cmd='"%TEMP%\ooo\setup" /q' />
<install cmd='cmd /c del /s /q "%TEMP%\ooo"' />
<remove cmd="msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\openoffice.log x{C3B3C054-0F00-4BC3-9A90-9C6B3EF4201F}" />
<upgrade cmd= />
</package>
