For anyone who may have been following my attempts to install
openoffice.org and the openoffice.org-he subpackage, I wish to report
that having successfully installed and run openoffice, I failed to
install openoffice.org-he. I had reverted to the original .info file;
notwithstanding that openoffice.org itself was installed, my new fink
install command (with the original openoffice.org.info file)
initiated the rebuilding of the entire openoffice.org suite,
including all of the language packs; I finally had to stop this
process when my initial free disk space of 50GB had been reduced to
270MB.
My next tweak to the .info file will be to remove the
--with-lang=ALL line from ConfigureParams script, and to remove all
of the language splitoffs except for %N-he.
I repeat to the maintainers: It is unreasonable to insist that any
build of openoffice.org include all of the splitoffs, at 4GB apiece
and nearly 200GB total disk space. I have just finished a fink
selfupdate, and it does not appear that the openoffice.org.info file
has been modified. How about it?
