Hi Jan,
just wanted to suggest that re-using one or the other already existing
structure for package re-organization would have some benefits. Possible
candidates IMHO are:
-1- projects
-2- modules
You more or less already ruled out the modules approach, arguing along
the line, that it would be too many resulting packages, which I
basically agree to.
So let's take a look a mirroring the (code) projects into the package
structure, we would get:
api
dba
documentation
external
framework
graphics
gsl
installation
l10n
oi (obsolet, but still used)
porting
qa
sc
script (obsolet, but still used)
sw
tools
ucb
udk
ui
util
whiteboard (obsolet, but still used)
xml
These are slightly more than in your suggestions (19 vs. 16), but still
seems to be manageable, the structure is partly similar. Benefits would be:
- Known package owner.
- No discussions where a new module belongs to etc.
- Already defined and established.
- Easy to find out where a module belongs too: cat <module>/CVS/Repository
Issues regarding build dependencies might give a hint about wrong module
placement and would need to be fixed anyway.
Comments?

Hi,
During the OOoCon, Petr had a presentation about the OOo package splitting.
The most important part for a (Linux) package maintainer was to be able to
build parts of OpenOffice.org separately; the thing is that with all the
localizations, we are unable to get the build times under some 7 hours. But
the build could be done nicely in parallel (on the level of machines, not
processors) if the sources were split correctly, with correct rpms and -devel
rpms [of course, applies to debs as well ;-)]. And of course, the -noarch
parts like the translations could be built just once for all architectures.
I propose the following split of the sources [the sizes are of the unpacked
sources]:
75M ure
25M ooo-bootstrap
141M ooo-libs-core
101M ooo-libs-guitoolkit
142M ooo-libs-3rdparty
17M ooo-apps-base
28M ooo-apps-calc
38M ooo-apps-extensions
14M ooo-apps-chart
40M ooo-apps-impress
40M ooo-apps-writer
59M ooo-artwork
107M ooo-filters
888M ooo-l10n
48M ooo-sdk
72M ooo-testing
(1.8G total)
(See below the content of these tarballs/archives). I don't want the
granularity to be too fine (we would get the modules we have now, but as
separate packages), and OTOH the current 5 packages are too few. The build
order of these would be:
ooo-bootstrap
ooo-libs-3rdparty
ure
ooo-libs-guitoolkit
ooo-libs-core
[the rest in whatever sequence/in parallel]
This would tremendously decrease the learning curve for the new developers as
well. Imagine someone who wants to start hacking on Calc. Instead of the
monster 1.8G sources, he would have to handle 512MB. Additionally, the goal
of the modern Linux distros should be to get rid of the ooo-libs-3rdparty
completely - it contains just stuff that is available from other sources
anyway [-system stuff], and the distros have packages for them -, thus
additional 142M down, doing it just 370M. And that is much more pleasant,
isn't it? ;-)
Of course, this is not finalized etc. - that's why I'm asking for comments.
So far I was able to build in this order with few hacks, eg. scp2 should be
split so that the file lists are local, the l10n part must be buildable
separtately, etc.
So - what do you think? ;-) ooo-l10n in the current proposal contains (in
addition to the few modules) all the localize.sdf's - should we split this a
bit as well?
Following is the proposal what I think belongs where:
