Somehow I managed to install Fecora 13 without openoffice.
yum provides openoffice reveals nothing. yum provides "*openoffice*" buries me in output. I usually get the same effect whenever I want to install a package whose name I do not know.

yum search openoffice and install the bits you need.
Or even, to get more compact output $ yum list openoffice*

Did you think about using 'search' instead of 'provides'?
Another useful tool: man yum :)

That is because OOo is indeed many packages, and with the dependencies I have no idea if its possible to install just one function. Generally, its all or none, and will probably need the latest Sun/Oracle JRE kit too.

In gewneral the command wshould be: yum provides */<prograqm name>
In this case ther is no program called openoffice. It is called: openoffice.org
