checked the build in the morning and en-US built was successful.
Besides
the fact that we have some issues on newer Linux distros (we ever

the src package is fine.
@Regina, I still have no ideas what the problem is in your env but
maybe
you can give one of the tar balls a try instead of the zip.
I have use apache-openoffice-4.1.2-r1709696-src.tar.gz now and
unzipped
it in Cygwin. That source builds fine then. I have added a note to
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_b
y_step#Windows_7
not to use Windows tools for unpacking.
good that we figured out why it didn't worked with the zip but it is
strange. We can think about dropping the zip completely. Users have to
use cygwin anyway and probably have the tools in place already. I would
drop the zip src release in the future.

Regina, can you explain what Windows tool you mean?
Do you mean not using the default way that Windows will open/extract a .zip
file?
Yes. I remember that for Windows own unpack tool problems have been
reported at OOo-times.
Do you mean that a Zip utility like WinZip or 7Zip should not be used?
Yes. I had used 7Zip and had got these strange access problems.
I assume the change you mean is where you use the Cygwin bash session and use
tar to unpack the tar.bz2 source. Is that correct?
Yes. I have now unpacked it inside Cygwin, using "tar xvzf
apache-openoffice-4.1.2-r1709696-src.tar.gz"
(Or has the change not been pushed yet?)
I have put my comment into section "Source release" right after the
command example on the Wiki page
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7.
I don't know, whether unpacking the zip-source inside Cygwin would work.
As both Jürgen and me could build it with the "tar.gz" source, I agree
with Jürgen, that next time we should not provide a zip-source at all.
Kind regards
Regina
