Re: Building Guide AOO
Hi Andre, you had a comment - why do we need subversion-devel. I looked back over my notes and it seems it was to get around an error needing lexpat. But that seems wrong, I could have just installed expat-devel. Maybe did and my notes are failing me :-) And it is mentioned in the original Fedora list of required libraries. I will keep an eye out next time I do a build and see if I can pin it down further.

Re: Building Guide AOO
Hi Ian, Le 7 avr. 12 à 07:31, Ian a écrit : Hi Andre, a couple of other things that I think need to be documented. Where is the product of the build I found it in the end in an installer in main/instsetoo_native/unxlngx6.pro/URE/rpm/install/en- US_download and the rpm in /main/instsetoo_native/unxlngx6.pro/URE/rpm/install/ en-US/RPMS I didn't build Apache OpenOffice on Linux since a while, but I'm nost sure everything is separated this way. Anyone to confirm ? What I am not sure about is how to install this in parallel to my current 3.3 install. Although do have http:// wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Run_OOo_versions_parallel Will work my way through that. And is there a way to simply run apps without going through the packaging stage etc? Some scripting to set up to run from the build area? If I understand your question, this is indeed possible, using "installed" as package format. The result will be a pre-installed archive, who can launch OpenOffice directly from the command line To achieve that, verify you have the following options existing in your configure command line : --with-package-format="deb rpm installed" in the configure command line.

Some scripting to set up to run from the build area? I still don't understand the details of the code structure and build etc. But will poke around some more... I do remember finding a developers guide somewhere. Anyway enjoying poking around and learning new stuff. Anything I/we can do to help reduce the learning curve for others can only be a bonus. I'll see if I can create a Wiki account and maybe update some of these things directly. Cheers.

Re: Building Guide AOO
Hi Andre, excellent timing, I am just trying to build on my x86_64Fedora system. Which I have almost done getting error. ERROR: Could not find license file LICENSE_en-US (B) in function: create_epm_header Given that it has been creating the rpms the build has completed and this is a packaging issue? I'll sort that later. Here are the things I needed to do to my vanilla Fedora installation when following your instructions. In order to get passed the configure stage I installed CPAN and then Archive:Zip and XML::Parser cups-devel pam-devel gperf Then downloaded the library from http://tools.openoffice.org/unowinreg_prebuild/680 and dumped it in external/unowinreg Installed freetype-devel, got the mozilla source from the link you mentioned and placed it in the described directory installed gtk2 Had a problem with Xaw headers so installed libXaw-devel installed bison and flex installed gconf2-devel installed gnome-vfs2-devel Whohoo configure worked. Bootstrap did its thing and grabbed some missing extensions. And created my shell file to source. LinuxX86-64-Env.Set.sh sourced the above and cd'ed to instsetoo_native (slight typo in your instructions - missing oo) I ran build -all P4 -- P4 which hammered my 4 cores on this i3 machine for 1 hour 20 mins before failing in building serf with a 65280 error. Installed openssl-devel to get passed that point. Failed looking for lexpat. Installed subversion-devel. That then seemed to build everything and get me to the packaging error above. Not sure if that helps with your instructions, but they sure helped me. Thank you. Now I need to find that license file and stick it in the correct spot.

Building Guide AOO
Hi all, I have started a rewrite of the building guide. My goals where - make it more understandable for people new to Apache OpenOffice - remove out-of-date and legacy information, update the rest - avoid repetition of general concepts (eg autoconf;configure;build) on platform specific pages - flatten the page hierarchy. You can judge yourself if I was successful: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO At the moment there are no links from other pages to the new guide so that we/I can make changes without confusing too many people.
