Hi, I sent the email below to fedora-devel some time ago; there was no response. Let's try again with some additional info. :-) I'm the fedora maintainer of pybliographer. The development version of pyblio (which I would like to push to the devel repo soon) has the capability to interact with openoffice through the pyuno component. (Bibus can do the same.) It can add citations and generate reference list in the document for example. The openoffice.org-pyuno package installs uno.py and other files under /usr/lib/openoffice.org/program/, so with the default installations and settings importing uno.py from external python programs gives an import error. Program specific patches could be used probably to add this 'strange' path to pythonpath, but wouldn't be better to make available these moduls for python at the openoffice level? See below what debian does. Any thoughts, ideas?

So, 'import uno' from python gives an import error. How should we support external programs to use this module? Should we patch the program to import uno.py from this directory somehow? Or would be better to change the installation path in the openoffice.org-pyuno package? Debian for instance installs /usr/share/pycentral/python-uno/site-packages/uno.py /usr/share/pycentral/python-uno/site-packages/unohelper.py /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyuno.so Zoltan
