While I have found ancient Red Hat and more recent Fedora Core RPMs for
AbiWord, I have been unable to find a source for either RHEL3 or RHEL4.
I am trying to avoid compiling from source if possible - there are many
dependencies. I've looked at freshmeat, dag.wieers, and rpmseek after
googling. Is there another source for compiled Red Hat packages? Also,
it appears that Red Hat had a package a few eons ago called powertools
that contained abiword. Was there a reason for dropping it?
A followup question, is there a better package for converting html
and/or MS Word files into pdf files?
