The patch is incomplete and some errors, see comment 6 from Fred (who happens to be the HSQLD developer, so he knows what he is talking about ;) ). Pedro pointed to the FreeBSD solution: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/editors/openoffice-3-devel/files/ which seems to be correct, as it also modifies build.xml, but the "debian" in the name of the patches suggests they took the patches from Debian, so the precedence/license is unclear. Note that I was/am/will not working on this; I simply made the patch from the copy&paste in the mailing list because they pinged a developer to look at it. @folling: are you working on this? I posted detailed instructions how to generate a patch that works in the build environment: http://markmail.org/message/gh5caocay7wao5g2 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
