[dev] Problems downloading source through Mercurial
Hi, I am trying to download the source for building Open Office. I am new to all of this but have used SVN before (never Mercurial though). I have Mac OS X 10.7.1. My problem is that when I type, hg clone http://hg.services.openoffice.org/DEV300 ooo_source, nothing happens. Finally, I get the following: error: abort: error: Operation timed out However, when I type, say, hg clone https://code.google.com/p/core-plot/, it works. -- - To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help

OpenOffice source code has been moved to apache.org and I guess repositories too. I don't remember the exact links but I think you have a fair chance of getting started at: http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/ Cheers -- Jan -- - To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help

I don't remember the exact links but I think you have a fair chance of getting started at: http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/ This is an svn repository that carries the code for the next OOo release that will be the first from an Apache tipi. If you want to work on the current code base, there's a copy of the old Mercurial OOo repository at bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/mst/ooo340 I'm surprised to see that the hg.services.openoffice.org server is down. There was no announcement for that, so probably it's just a temporary problem. Nevertheless, you can use bitbucket as a replacement. BTW: building OOo on Mac OS X 10.7 is not easy. It doesn't work out of the box. You have at least to back to the 10.4 SDK and XCode 3.2.6.

HI Mathias, Thanks for the information. Perhaps, I should tell you why I want to build OOo, and, then, maybe you could suggest what course I should take. I am trying to get PyUno working so that I can read and interface with .doc and .docx files (e.g. highlight certain words in documents, such as proper names) while they are being viewed by users in MsWord. The problem is that PyUno links against Python2.3 and, therefore, I cannot run it on Mac OS X 10.7.1: 10.7.1 does not have Python2.3 in its complete form, and, at any rate, I wouldn't want to use that Python version because it would prevent imports of other modules requiring later Python versions. PyUno, then, must be made to link against either Python 2.6.7 or Python 2.7, the Python versions I have on my system. But, how to do this? I read here, at http://www.mail-archive.com/mac@porting.openoffice.org/msg03582.html, that: Those who build OOo by themselves will be able to just use --with[out]-system-python, but only very, very few Mac users will build their own copy of OOo. Thus it is important to decide on the default, what the installsets offered from www.openoffice.org will include (or not include)At this stage, I have downloaded the entire repository for OOo. Is there a way to selectively build just the PyUno Module? Also, do you have any suggestions as to where I can begin? I am a newbie and am becoming somewhat overwhelmed at what has become quite a daunting task. Thanks, in advance, for any help you can provide.
