Interesting, I know that MacOS on PPC was an officially supported platform. But FreeBSD on PPC is really unusual and I didn't know this before. Therefore I think it must be a remaining part of an old attempt to get another port - maybe from the 1.x or early 2.x days of OffenOffice. > Therefore, you should be able to support FreeBSD PowerPC. In fact, I've I wouldn't think so far. This doesn't mean we are able to provide help. Maybe it was the work of one or a handful of people. I'm pretty sure that these are no longer active in the community as the most are working on Windows, OSX and Linux with x86 CPU, 1-2 on OS/2, 1-2 with FreeBSD *) and a few on Solaris. > already created patches that allow AOO to compile on this platform. > > However, I've been unable to resolve this one issue, which seems not to be > related to the OS or CPU. OK, that sounds promising. *) Because it's FreeBSD maybe you should get in contact with Pedro Giffuni. Please write a mail to the developers mailing list (see here: http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#development-mailing-list-public). It's the better (best) way to get in contact with developers in general when you have problems with building. HTH -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
