Is there a fink version of OOo that compiles/installs on 
10.5?  I've tried to compile the ones that are listed, 
openoffice.org-firefox and openoffice.org-nocrypto, but both 
fail early on (the firefox one fails at the patching phase). 
For both I've hit dependency problems, e.g., with 
fontconfig2-dev/shlibs which wants system-xfree86 (which no 
longer exists).  I created local tree copies of the info 
files to get round these, but that didn't get me much 
further.

Up until now I've managed to make my 10.4 debs of OOo work 
under 10.5.  But that was on upgraded finks, not all built 
new from scratch against the new X11.  Now that I've done a 
nice clean build from scratch, things don't work anymore :-| 
(essentially because some of the libraries don't match).

So I'm wondering if folks are just using a different OOo 
with 10.5 and not bothering to build it?  The thing is, I 
want the en-gb localisation, which doesn't seem to be 
available as a binary from anywhere that comes up with 
google.

many thanks,
