I recently built Apache OpenOffice 4.1.3 RC prior to GA on Debian Sid
(bleeding-edge ;-) for AMD64 architecture.

I built DEB and RPM packages for Debian (and derivatives like Ubuntu)
and RedHat (and derivatives, like CentOS, Oracle Unbreakable Linux,
etc), respectively.

GCC 6 will not build the OpeonOffice suite; however, GCC 5 will
happily build the Apache professional office suite application.

The following recent blog entry may provide insight on my procedure:

Where? When you cite the wiki please always send the link, since there 
are a lot of outdated pages that are not marked as such (by the way, 
if you want to help in doing so while you go through the build you are 
welcome; just ask for a MWiki account here on the list in case).

sure. I am sorry I thought its obvious which page I look at.
If I change something depends on the need to do it. I am open for 
helping out on the wiki too. However I personally have currently no 
change I would like to make.



I wonder if the release driven Distros are still 2 Versions behind, or
does this entry need an update?


Give the precise URL and we can take a look. Note: using a search 
engine will often bring you to an outdated page. Always start from 
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
My appologies. I thought there is only one build guide - the one you 
mention. And this leads you to the Linux section:

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Building_on_Linux



Which Versions do our build bots use? I think they should be the
reference or?


We build daily snapshots and releases. For daily snapshots we use what 
Infra wants to supply (usually a long-term-support Ubuntu); for 
releases we use our reference baseline (currently CentOS 5, a very old 
distribution; this guarantees that our binaries will run on all 
distributions that are the same age as CentOS 5 or later, so 
practically all Linux desktop machines in use).
I am not sure if I was readable. At least you do not answer my question. 
Please let me refrase:
Should the reference gcc Version mentioned in the wikipage be the same 
that is used in CentOS 5? (In my Opinion yes...)

Which is the GCC Version that CentOS 5 is using ?
:-D
I am sorry. I am sometimes not paying attention what other people read.


Regards,
  Andrea.

All the best
Peter

We build daily snapshots and releases. For daily snapshots we use what

Re: Reporting broken download link

2016-10-22 Thread John D'Orazio
Hello, please make sure you are downloading from the correct places. You
can go here to find the correct package to download for your environment:
http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html . I have just tested once
more on Windows 10 using IE Explorer 11 and it works correctly. It links to
the sourceforge mirror and you get a notification from Internet Explorer if
you want to run or save. Please make sure you are choosing one of these two
options to continue with the download.

reference gcc compiler (wiki - Linux entry)

2016-10-22 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,


I try to build OpenOffice on my machine (yea!)

However when working through the requirements I noticed that

gcc 4.2.3 is the current reference compiler


Since I use Arch (and I expect similar for gentoo) I have GCC 6.2.1 
20160830 installed


I wonder if the release driven Distros are still 2 Versions behind, or 
does this entry need an update?


Which Versions do our build bots use? I think they should be the

Technical details are here:

But there is no need to worry, you can perfectly interact with all

The .INVALID at the end is appended by some particular configuration 
that was applied to all ASF mailing lists: when people write from some 
providers that are known to have issues with our mailing list software 
(one notable example is yahoo.com) a ".INVALID" is appended to avoid a 
sequence of events that would lead the user to be auto-unsubscribed. 
There are details on the Infra blog, but this should be enough.


So when answering to such a mail and wishing to CC the sender, just 
remove the .INVALID and everything will be fine.
