Well, for what it's worth, attached are some patches to help get things started. I've cleaned up what I could from the 1.1.4 patches (not including the gcc patch) but the java patch still needs work.

Many sections from the java patch no longer exist in OOo2, but I used 'grep -lr' to scan the source tree to clean up the same sorts of issues found in the patch. (The big one was the use of 'enum' as a var name.)

I looked through the fedora development srpms, and all I could find was jdk-1.4.2; I'll try building OOo2 with that when I have a chance, but I don't know enough about java to make it compatible with jdk-1.5.

OOo2 gives missing symbol and deprecated (error) messages just before it bails. Without comparing everything, this looks to be pretty much what I get (same number of errors/warnings and the same sort of issues).

The solution, of course, being 'jdk1.5 is currently not supported.' I haven't found anything useful yet through google.

If anyone has any insight into this issue, I'd love to hear about it.

Regards,
Jeremy.

(This should probably be sent to BLFS-Dev but I don't know if the other folk are subscribed, so here it's sent.)
