I've seen that it is part of the build script
("build_aoo64bit_on_centos5.sh", the 2nd IF clause from top). Do you
mean this?
No, I mean the lines in configure.in that give the error:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/configure.in?r1=1490973&r2=1491054&pathrev=1491054&diff_format=h
(and this is also what Raphael was referring to).
we can't rely on wget being available (but we could rely on other
tools like the bootstrap script does).
Sure we can rely on wget. If it's not avialable then building is not
possible.
I'm not sure about this. Probably we can build on a system that has curl
but not wget, a fairly common case; and, if I recall correctly, Damjan
had ported the downloader so that it only relied on Java being available
(which is already a prerequisite for building, so it doesn't add any new
dependencies).
... moving into bootstrap would be indeed better.
I see that we currently fail at the configure step, so this would need
work there. I honestly think we have relied on the pre-built DLL for
several years, so the options for building it from sources (see
configure.in around the snippet above) should be documented better, or
handled differently.
