I tried building OpenOffice on the coming Fedora 19 to see how it worked with a fairly recent set of build tools. As for STLport, I used the default choice for 32-bit systems (this uses the STLPort package from the external sources we bundle).

We have two problems with the current trunk:

- The "hsqldb" module does not build with Java 7. The patch at https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121754 fixes it and, since this is the only part that does not build with Java 7, this should be checked and possibly integrated (the issue is set as a possible release blocker).

- The "moz" module does not build. It can really be anything, I didn't check: one problematic line in code, an obsolete language pattern, a compiler bug... I just reconfigured with --disable-mozilla for the purpose of finishing the build. Is this something that should be investigated or are we going to get rid of this module soon? If I recall correctly, it is obsolete, unmaintained, external code.

Regards,
  Andrea.
