Check your setup as something is wrong if your configure does not detect Python.h correctly. Usually, it is your searches for LIBS (-L/-R)/INCLUDES (-I) in the *FLAGS. Also, OI-SFE project officially uses GCC 4.6.1. I added libreoffice.spec there for anyone to work from or build their own revisions. Someone from Oracle was working on porting LibreOffice as well...

Re: [oi-dev] Request for volunteers: Building LibreOffice
Alex, Don't place the cart before the horse. GCC 4.6.1 was still in flux and not officially the compiler of choice for SFE (or not officially ready or 'signed off/approved' at the time). The libreoffice.spec came way before then and before the officially approved release of oi_151a. I looked at building LibreOffice from a 600MB monolithic tarball and the individual package set (much smaller). My patches related to my work on the large tarball - but I DO NOT advise going down that path and work from the released '3.4.3.2' set for now for team review. I've sent Gary some of my notes so he can continue to move forward. ~ Ken Mays From: Alex Viskovatoff viskovat...@imap.cc To: OpenIndiana Developer mailing list oi-dev@openindiana.org Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2011 4:38 PM Subject: Re: [oi-dev] Request for volunteers: Building LibreOffice Hi Ken, On Thu, 2011-09-22 at 05:25 -0700, ken mays wrote: I did some of the initial work on porting LibreOffice 3.4.3.2 to OpenIndiana oi_151.

[oi-dev] Request for volunteers: Building LibreOffice
Hi All, http://alasdairrr.tumblr.com/post/10404734792/libreoffice We've been joined by a LibreOffice developer in #oi-dev, who is willing to help us with a port of LibreOffice to OpenIndiana. Unfortunately all the usual suspects who might work on this are tied up - so I'm mailing the lists to find out if anyone might be interested in collaborating with us on this? Ideally someone who steps forward should know their way around a Makefile pretty well and have ported software to Solaris before - LibreOffice is pretty big. Getting LibreOffice into OI would be a big win - it's an often requested package. Cheers, Alasdair ___ oi-dev mailing list oi-dev@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev

I used to do this type of thing all of the time for my group’s local server when I was at Sun so I can probably help*.

Fantastic :-) Yes, LibreOffice needs work in this area - it's going to be a bit of a nightmare to build. But that certainly looks like a good place to start. Since it already builds on numerous UNIX™ and UNIX like systems I presume that the port ought to be pretty straight forward. Is there anything in particular that I need to know about before I get started? LibreOffice unfortunately has a really ugly compiler/platform specific ABI: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/bridges/source/cpp_uno On Linux/BSD it expects gcc and on Solaris it expects Sun Studio. So for now the LibreOffice developers are recommending we use Sun Studio to build it, although they would welcome support for gcc on Solaris, but it would require someone with assembly skills. Probably not important at the moment. Because LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice you'd think it would build out of the box, but unfortunately the fork was done by a consortium of Linux distributions who have taken an axe to the core of it and I can't say for sure what issues you're likely to encounter, but they have said they will accept patches upstream to fix build issues on other platforms. I'd recommend dropping by IRC if you can, to #oi-dev on irc.freenode.net - we have someone from the LibreOffice development team in there (his nickname is ftigeot) who knows about the build system and can offer help/pointers if needed.
