Summary and Info:
I needed openoffice to run in headless mode as a daemon to support Alfreco. So I made the attached package. I think it may be a common need and probably should work its way into the main openoffice repositories.

Steps to Reproduce:
(application/x-gzip)    openoffice-headless-3.1.1-1.s... (1.3 KiB)
This task depends upon

From my Trac instance where I was developing this:

Packaging complete. This package:

* Adds a user and group from which to execute the openoffice daemon
* Installs a control script in /etc/rc.d
* Installs a configuration file (to set the port it listens on) in /etc/conf.d/openoffice
* Makes a home directory for the openoffice user in /usr/share/openoffice (just in case Openoffice tries to store settings in the home directory).
* Removes the openoffice user and group from the system files when the package is removed.

You can upload it to the AUR.

Yes please. AUR is where you should maintain it for now. I have enough OOo branches to maintain.
