How about using what already is there?
Code:
yum search office

Code:
su
yum install libreoffice

And about compiling, you dont need to be root to compile binaries...
You just need to be root to install them in places so all can use it.

LibreOffice - Browse Files at SourceForge.net

If you need help with compiling itself, there are several theads in the forum giving help on this.
Please use the search function.

Hope this helps to get you started.
