Hi I understand that Libreoffice is in the desiderata of a lot of people around the Solaris/openindiana OS. I did not try to use it through wine, thank you, this is a good possibility, I tried and after installation of java under wine, I could open a Libreoffice writer window on my desktop, Great !. But when I tried to open a docx, that works fine on openoffice 3.3, It Crashed suddenly sigh :-( . Based on your mail it seems that there is an effort on buildng a native port. This is awesome and I would like to contribute in this effort whenever possible.
Thank you Paolo On 01/25/12 02:40 PM, ken mays wrote:
Hello, See: http://pkgsrc-wip.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pkgsrc-wip/wip/libreoffice/Makefile?hideattic=1&revision=1.17&view=markup I have an experimental LibreOffice spec in SFE. I was pulling from LibreOffice Git initially, but you can use the smaller release tarballs. A few of us talked of porting LibreOffice 3.3.4 about a few months ago and I worked on alternatively resolving this through maintaining our port build of Wine 1.3.x (i.e. my clients use Microsoft Office 2010 and LibreOffice 3.3.4/3.4.5). A recent Wine 1.3.36 build is in the OI sfe-encumbered IPS repo. FOSDEM 2012 may provide additional resources to assist and discuss in the native LibreOffice port for OpenIndiana/Solaris 11. A few other people working/assisting on the LibreOffice for OpenIndiana/Solaris native port were: Francois Tigeot, Dr. Karl Behler, and Michael Meeks (Novell). Hope that helped, Ken Mays
