Hi Rene, it came to my mind that perhaps it would be worth trying building OO "the Debian way" but without the debian patches, as perhaps the problem lies not on the linked libs but on some patch itself.
I took a look at the OO-2.2.1~rc1-1.diff.gz package and i must confess i don't quite understand what is what in those 73M (wow...!) but at least the stuff in ooo-build/patches/cairo seems to be of relevance. If it is possible to disable at least some of those patches and have the Debian build succeed then we could start re-adding some patches until the problem is 'bounded'. My 2 cents :) Regards, Ariel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
