I am sorry, but I don't seem to get the installer to work for me ...
(nearly complete log of commands below). Any hints ?

This is the same Ubuntu Dapper x86 box on which I tried before.
I had moved the old odf-viewer files to an 'old' sub directory before
starting this.

[a minimal README would be handy here, even if nothing more than explaining
which program I need to run. So I guessed to try 'odfviewer-installer']
