Well, the answer is simple: If you use one of the --enable-system-xy, you of course need the xy-stuff on your system. Apart from that the OOo build is very self-contained. You only need a shell, the compiler, a JDK (for all features), ant (when using java-dependant features), perl (and per's Zip::Archive module) and that's about it. configure will tell you when something is missing with your configure switches. If it does not, it is a bug. ciao Christian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
