Hi Jonathan, thanks for your feedback.

Cool!
In fact, my package was not well-tested on Panther. I appreciate your
report.
but has reverted to installing all of its packages,
Yes, reverted to _building_ all language packs, to be more precise.
Could OOo please go back to the previous behavior of installing only
the wanted language packages?
Maybe you mean "building only the wanted language packs".. but why?
I don't want to. Of course, if many objections come, I'll consider
again.
On my fastest machine, building OpenOffice.org takes half a day with
only one language pack (e.g. --with-lang=he), or a day with 65 language
packs (--with-lang=ALL). I thought "--with-lang=ALL" give us a good
balance between who wants only one language pack and who wants some
language packs.
Given the way you suggest ( building only one language pack at one time
):
If I want both openoffice.org-de and openoffice.org-ja, I'll be forced
to build OOo 3 times and it'll take me 2 days. On another (kind of)
special case, if some university wants all language packs installed via
Fink for students, it has to build them for 30 days long. (well, maybe
it's a bad example; half a day with 65 Macs)
Until 2.0.0-1, building --with-lang=ALL was almost impossible for
normal users; it consumed huge disk space up to 50GB or more. I looked
for the way to avoid it for a long time, and very much helped by
OpenOffice.org persons, and now the disk consumption on building is
lowered: 7GB with 65 language packs. I thought it got close to your
tolerance level...
Also, there was a problem with font conversion:
Setting up openoffice.org (2.0.0-1) ...
Converting Mac OS X fonts...
Can't find an appropriate resource fork in
/System/Library/Fonts/AquaKanaBold.otf
Can't find an appropriate resource fork in
/System/Library/Fonts/AquaKanaRegular.otf
:
Can't find an appropriate resource fork in /Library/Fonts/~{;*NDKNLe~}.ttf
Can't find an appropriate resource fork in /Library/Fonts/~{;*ND?,Le~}.ttf
These errors are normal, unfortunately: Maybe I should have set
2>/dev/null (-_-;
But I think now you can find some fonts on Mac OS X are also available
on OpenOffice.org.
