with firefox i think you can download the indian ver in format .tar but if you choose the 2.0.0.14 ( the last ver ff2) only have to copy in /opt and tar -xzvf ffblabla.tar.gz , goes to firefox and exec...the keyboard indian i do not know if is in the dsl panel control keyboard...the fff3 need more libs , libc6-2.3.2-22sarge6.dsl and gtk 2.12.9.uci 
(ask to meo)to do a ffindian.uci
" of another kuky post"
Summary of recent works of kukylabs in doing a uci file with dsl style (menus files and user.tar.gz) with sucess..
1) i made the untar firefox20011 of the spanish ver(firefox.2.0.0.11.tar.gz) in opt i add with mydsl gtk2 0705.dsl and run fine (only some warnigs of type translate i think by gtk2.dsl procedures)...
2) i rename /opt/firefox by opt/esfirefox20011(i put first es to easy find the spanish versions in the repository).
3) i made with beaver /tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011 with the line
[exec] (esfirefox20011) { /opt/esfirefox20011/firefox}
copy a icon esfirefox20011.xpm to /tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm
(the xpm is the result of convert with xpaint icon.png to icon.xpm)
( i no made lnk and icon to .xdesktop to ver 3.xx)
4) i made a list file with beaver in tmp with the lines
/tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011
/tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm
( i no made lines to lnk and icon in .xdesktop to ver 3.xx)
5) i type in aterm root (how i understand of page 205 of official book)
a) # chown -R 0.0 /opt/
b) # chown -R 0.0 /tmp/
c) # chown -R 1001.50 /home/dsl/
d) # chown 1001.50 /tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011
e) # chown 1001.50 /tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm
6) i create the user.tar.gz with
# tar -C / -T /tmp/list -czvf /opt/esfirefox20011/user.tar.gz
(its done a user.tar.gz of 50 kb )
7) i make the uci in /opt (emelfm) with
# mkisofs -R -hide-rr-moved esfirefox20011 | create_compressed_fs - 65536 > /tmp/esfirefox20011.uci (and the uci its done after several lines of iso...)
8) test the uci (a or b).
a) i copy the uci in sda1 and rename the original /opt/esfirefox20011 by /opt/aesfirefox20011 and do the same in tmp / mydsl.menu/ and tmp/ mydsl.icons/ and reinice the pc.
b) run the dsl iso-cd and with mydsl app run the uci
to do the same with OOo begin with
Dowload OOo*..tar.gz version linuxintel of OOo.org
#tar -zxvf OOo*.tar.gz
#cd OOG*/RPMS
#for FILENAME in *.rpm ; do exec rpm2cpio "$FILENAME" | cpio -i -d ; done
you can go to /OOo and run soficce with exec...
to do the uci goes to point 2
if its run send to roberts to put in mydsl extensions with the info and md5sum
