Does this thing build its own python, too, and its own readline? I know why I never tried to build it, and probably never will...

Then if you want one of the other languages, it builds everything all over again...

I guess if openoffice wants to build each and every package that Fink already has, then it will also have to contain a complete collection of patches :-)

Think positive...when OOo first appeared for Tiger it built every one of the languages even if you only wanted en-US! It didn't take too long for the Todai Fink team to produce language package splitoffs when this was requested, so maybe they'll streamline the build further by using existing fink packages as things get more stable...(how about it guys? 18 hrs on a dual G5 is still a bit epic...most of us need to use our processors for doing other things).
