Well the problem is I added a link and it said it didnt work.
I went to install openoffice into mepis 8.5 antix and it failed to
complete saying packages were missing... I had updated synaptic before
doing this via the reload button, I then clicked on some more
package adresses but these didnt help either. I went to this link:-
mepislovers.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21224
and wrote this into my mepis antix installatin in synaptic;-
Main repo : deb http://main.mepis-deb.org/mepiscr/repo/
Yet it says that address couldnt be resolved.
I went to Debian site to see where there repository link is because i guess
since this mepis is a few months old it might be out of date, but I failed to
find the required info.
