Hi Thomas,

The direct link is actually the one under the "Get the most
recent build for ..." URL text. If the language is tweaked, so
that the link is not suitable, then the others.html page
should fit. Hm, but maybe I don't understand you. ;-)
Maybe ... ;) I mean: When I go to the .../next side, I see

<quote>
Developer Build
$blah
Click to start downloading OOO310_m2 for Linux (English)
</quote>

(for example) and the link below
contains "...os=linuxIntel&lang=en-US...". And  here it would
be nice to have

<quote>
Developer Build
$blah
Click to start downloading OOO310_m2 for Linux (German)
</quote>

with a corresponding link  below it ... ;)
Is it more understandable? I hope so  ... ;)
the Javascript on the website gets the language and OS data from
the browser. So, it seems you are using English US as language
and Linux as OS but want to download a German build. If so, then
there is no possibility to get to this because the website cannot
know that you want a build with a different language or OS. ;-)

well, then I think that - for some reason - JS gets this information wrong. I am using a Germanophone IceWeasel (a.k.a. Firefox) under Debian with preferred languages de-DE, de, en-GB and loads of others. Interestingly I would get the RPMs, if I click on the "Developer Build..." link ... :(
I am neither use a proxy nor any anomizer like TOR ... ;)

you are using a deb-based OS but want to download rpm files. How should the one-click-download technic recognize this? Because of the data that the browser is delivering to the JS script, it will be decided to offer deb files.

Of course you can (maybe) tweak the user agent data that the browser is sending to reach your goal. But then probably you will have problems on other websites.

I'm sorry but I think there is no solution for your case. ;-)

Best regards

Marcus
