Hi Andre,

excellent timing, I am just trying to build on my x86_64Fedora system.

Which I have almost done.... getting error.

ERROR: Could not find license file LICENSE_en-US (B)
in function: create_epm_header

Given that it has been creating the rpms the build has completed and this
is a packaging issue?
I'll sort that later.

Here are the things I needed to do to my vanilla Fedora installation when
following your instructions.

In order to get passed the configure stage I installed
CPAN and then Archive:Zip and XML::Parser

cups-devel
pam-devel
gperf
Then downloaded the library from
http://tools.openoffice.org/unowinreg_prebuild/680 and dumped it in
external/unowinreg

Installed freetype-devel,
got the mozilla source from the link you mentioned and placed it in the
described directory

installed gtk2
Had a problem with Xaw headers so installed libXaw-devel

installed bison and flex

installed gconf2-devel

installed gnome-vfs2-devel

Whohoo configure worked.

Bootstrap did its thing and grabbed some missing extensions.
And created my shell file to source.  LinuxX86-64-Env.Set.sh

sourced the above and cd'ed to instsetoo_native (slight typo in your
instructions - missing oo)

I ran build -all P4 -- P4 which hammered my 4 cores on this i3 machine for
1 hour 20 mins before failing in building serf with a 65280 error.
Installed openssl-devel to get passed that point.

Failed looking for lexpat.

Installed subversion-devel.

What do we need that for?


That then seemed to build everything and get me to the packaging error
above.

Not sure if that helps with your instructions, but they sure helped me.

It sure does.  I added the missing packages for perl and Fedora.
Fixed the type.

Thank you for your detailed description.

Thank you.

Now I need to find that license file and stick it in the correct spot.

Cheers,

Ian

Hi all,

I have started a rewrite of the building guide.  My goals where

- make it more understandable for people new to Apache OpenOffice

- remove out-of-date and legacy information, update the rest

- avoid repetition of general concepts (eg autoconf;configure;build) on
platform specific pages

- flatten the page hierarchy.


You can judge yourself if I was successful:

http://wiki.services.**openoffice.org/wiki/**Documentation/Building_Guide_
**AOO<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO>

At the moment there are no links from other pages to the new guide so that
we/I can make changes without confusing too many people.


Feel free to make changes to improve the guide.

Or point out the things that you don't understand or miss or that are
wrong.


Best regards,
Andre
