Hi All,

Not sure if anyone has went down this road yet but I've installed CentOS
8 with a Gnome desktop env, on a server of mine and would like to build
AOO 4.2 on it  or even 4.1.x if needed.
My starting point was the Building Guide section for Centos 7 for AOO
4.2.  [1]

I have the following repos enabled:
CentOS-8 - AppStream                            9.1 kB/s | 4.3 kB     00:00
CentOS-8 - Base                                 8.0 kB/s | 3.8 kB     00:00
CentOS-8 - Extras                               1.2 kB/s | 1.5 kB     00:01
CentOS-8 - PowerTools                           8.5 kB/s | 4.3 kB     00:00
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux Modular 8 -  27 kB/s |  12 kB     00:00
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - x86_64   32 kB/s |  17 kB     00:00

But I'm not finding a few of the listed dependencies:

No match for argument: gnome-vfs2-devel
No match for argument: gstreamer-devel
No match for argument: gstreamer-plugins-base-devel
No match for argument: ORBit2-devel
Error: Unable to find a match: gnome-vfs2-devel gstreamer-devel
gstreamer-plugins-base-devel ORBit2-devel

I found that gstreamer 0.1 is no longer maintained and they suggest 1.0
series. [2]
Do we still need 0.1 for building.

It looks like gnome-vfs2 is superseded by GVfs [3] .
I have a number of gvfs-* packages installed already so I added gvfs-devel.
Would this work ?

I see ORBit2 is used for CORBA.   I'm coming up blank on any CentOS 8
package.

Also, what minimum or better yet latest Java could I build 4.2 with?

Any help would be appreciated.

Carl;

As I do not build I cannot help much with the problems you are
encountering but what i can do is as you find solutions to the problems
that are version 8 specific I can add a section to the guide for CentOS 8.

Keith

Hi Keith,

Thank you.

I'm trying to keep good notes to help update the guides.
In addition to the base server itself,  I also setup 2 fresh VM's. One with CentOS 8 with a basic Gnome Desktop and one with CentOS 7 the same way so I can try to verify as many dependencies as I can instead of starting with a system already setup for building software.
That way I can always roll them back and start again.
I could always add more types if it would be useful.
I used to have a MSDN subscription and could get Windows OS's for development but not anymore so Windows is out for now.

Best regards,
Carl
