------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Nov 19 09:28:34 +0000 2009 ------- This is on Gentoo Linux (~x86 aka not the stable version). A few days ago, the new version of GNU patch (patch-2.6) became available. Since then the building of openoffice fails, rather: it does not even start - because patch-2.6 is not recognized by the build scripts as a valid version to do the job. Downgrading patch to the previous version (patch-2.5.9-r1) will work as expected: I now have openoffice OOO310m19 (build:9420) - at the bottom it says: "Build 3.1.1.4" running. The failure message, when patch-2.6 is used, is: ... Execute with for distro(s) 'Gentoo Binfilter System Sdk Extensions Localize' Can't get patch version make: *** [stamp/patch.apply] Error 255 ..." The reason seems to be in line 923 of ooo-build-3.1.1.4/patches/apply.pl.in which seems to do the parsing The following line checks for a version greater or equal to 2.5.9 but the script does not get there with patch-2.6 installed. output of "patch --version" is for me: patch --version patch 2.6 Copyright (C) 1988 Larry Wall Copyright (C) 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

There is a bug-report on bugs.gentoo.org - #293385 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293385 but I suppose this place is better suited. I hope this (OOO310m19) is the right category - it is an issue with all versions, I suppose. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
