:-) A wise decission. Sometimes when looking back I wish I had done it the same instead of overreacting that is something I will have to learn. > The last build of OOo I did was 1.9m97, then I went on vacation, etc. I > have started getting back into OOo development, and I am currently building > 1.9m112 (I ran into a couple of problems, but I will document those when my > build finishes, or if I can't get past a problem). M112 is a beast. Hopes are that m113 will be better. I decided to wait for m113 and integrate the changes in this build. > I do build OOo 1.1.x builds on Jaguar, and they all work (for me in my > limited testing) on Jaguar/Panther/Tiger, but I have no formal QA/release > process in place, partly because the official US version of OOo 1.1.2 for > Mac OS X used the InstallAnywhere Installer, and I don't have a license to > use that, and I haven't had time to put together an installer package for > Jaguar/Panther/Tiger users that is as good as the one for OOo 1.1.2 (in > spite of a couple of known bugs with that installer). Well there is and was a documentation in Issuezilla from Kevin B. Hendricks how to pack the 1.1.x builds with Apple packagemaker and in another Issue additions from Patrick Luby how to prevent the Apple Installer from messing up the permission rights. If you want it I can take a look at my bookmarks and sent you those two Issues. Or at least the last issue I just found the packing Instructions rtf file that I got from Kevin and which has some additional infos but not the latest ones from Patrick Luby. > More importantly, I don't have any server space, nor do I have broadband Internet access at > home, so I can release my builds - if someone can help with server space, I > might be able to do something. Ask Stefan Taxhet if he gives you access to macosxrc stardiv mirror. There you can place your 1.1.x RC builds and if they are placed there I can try to motivate and activate my german QA testers for Mac OS X. If your build runs from Jaguar to Tiger the only problem I can see is to find a german user out of my group that still uses Jaguar but maybe we find en-US testers for Jaguar. > FYI, I did attempt to build OOo 1.9m97 on Jaguar but ran into a couple of > problems that prevented the build from succeeding, and I haven't found time > or got the expertise to investigate further. Most of them were fixed but with m112 new ones came back. > I did run into some problems building 1.9m97 that I intended to document, > but vacation and other things got in the way, so I am now waiting for my > 1.9m112 builds to see if I still have to document the issues. Good decision. > If you want me to try some builds of OOo 1.1.5 candidates in > Jaguar/Panther/Tiger, I could probably do that. Yes please do so. It would be really good to know if James McKenzie only has bad luck with building OOo or if there are really big issues in 1.1.5. You have to use gcc 3.3 which comes with XCode 2.0 and 2.1 for Tiger simply because OOo isn't ready for Tigers gcc 4.0 - that's one of the next major tasks need to be done simply because of the Intel move.
