Hi Eric,

I fully agree. Although I see that problem as more general. OOo should really stick to GNU conventions:

- be able to use bash, not tcsh

I second this, ideally any shell could be used so ....


...
- OOo should not attempt to build its own packages, at least under Linux.
  Under Linux, that's the distributions' work!
  This problem is related to the "make install" one.
In my opinion, OOo is showing the right approach here, it is IMHO unfortunate and a waste of time, that everybody patches and builds everything by its own, leading to small incompatibilities and bugs here and there ...

But as you say, that's not easily fixed. And a few things like "build" and "deliver" can make your life easier once you have understood them... which is not necessarily obvious.
I am personally not a friend of build&deliver also ... :-)
