Install of Open Office fails
Now that I have opened the Open Office install file, the install continues to fail.

I type cd install

then use the install command "./install prefix=/opt"

and receive the following error;

./install: mktemp not found
./install: Can't create temp file, exiting

What to do?

I do not think that it is installed under my build of SCO. What version of mktemp do I need and how do I use it?

I don't know what version you need (I presume one that's compatible with the rest of your system):

You won't need to know how to use it - OpenOffice will deal with this.
