actually i did use the opportunity to rebuild 2.0 instead. but now i'm trying 
to install ooodict all languages (i actually need them), and it's complaining 
about missing 1.1.5 libraries (which i deleted before building 2.0 to avoid 
conflicts) and starts building ooo 1.1.5 again!! how do i prevent this?

thanks
