 I think you are being unfair towards the gentoo developers. It isn't 
 the ebuild but OOo's build system (and source). The gentoo devs just 
 try to work around its extreme fragility.

ACK. Gentoo folks are not responsible for the OO-crap. Imagine,
these OO jerks even ship their own compiler+glibc. 

Instead Gentoo folks deserve great honor for getting it built
anyway.

[gentoo-user] Re: Which openoffice

2008-05-05 Thread Francesco Talamona

  2 - how long does it take to compile openoffice-bin
  on a PC with 2 GB Ram and a AMD Athlon-64 3200+ Processor?

 On my 2003 machine (AMD 2500+)  5 hours ;
 on my 2007 machine (Intel Core-2 Duo 6700)  2 hours .

Those are the timings of openoffice, openoffice-bin doesn't get 
compiled, it is deployed, on my 2 GB amd 64 3200+:


 Sat Apr 19 14:40:43 2008  app-office/openoffice-bin-2.4.0
   merge time: 2 minutes and 57 seconds.

Ciao
Francesco

OOo has just got to be the most fscked-up ebuild I've ever seen.

My old 2600+ MD Barton machine often took 18 hours to build (!)

So now I use OOo-bin, just don't try doing other intensive work 
while deploying it. Here's what happens:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ genlop -t openoffice-bin
 * app-office/openoffice-bin

 Fri Nov  9 09:27:59 2007  app-office/openoffice-bin-2.3.0
   merge time: 50 seconds.

 Fri Jan  4 12:06:03 2008  app-office/openoffice-bin-2.3.1
   merge time: 35 minutes and 51 seconds.

 Wed Apr  2 20:59:25 2008  app-office/openoffice-bin-2.4.0
   merge time: 1 hour, 5 minutes and 12 seconds.

The emerge in April also had two other emerges going at the same time - 
a world update and a complete e17 rebuild. Nothing else showed a 6000% 
increase in deploy time though

Weird, huh?

 Still, it builds just fine here. I let the build run overnight and
 have a fresh OpenOffice the next day.

You sir, are completely correct.

There, now it's fixed.
