Re: [dev] problem with compiling ooo-build
Thanks guys. I just reinstalled my system and tried to download OO again, because there were lots of files missing and it just couldn't work. I installed Ubuntu Karmic but it's not working there either, ubuntu-sparc-hack.diff seems like missing second half of a file. I was hopeless so I commented it out in 'apply' with some other .diff with the same problem and now it's complaining about some package configuration. Trying to fix it, but... Don't you know whether there is some distro without serious problems with building? I'm quite willing to install it whatever it is. thanks On Mon, Mar 29, 2010 at 9:42 AM, Rene Engelhard r...@openoffice.org wrote: Hi, On Sun, Mar 28, 2010 at 06:48:26PM +0200, Heiko L. wrote: |diff --git a/sc/inc/sc.hrc b/sc/inc/sc.hrc - pwd != patchdir - use -p1 Nonsense.

[dev] Wiki Cleanup: Mission Accomplished (Mostly)
Hi List, the Wiki Cleanup has been almost completed. There are just seven pages left in: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Special:UncategorizedPages If you can remove those, please do so. Also note the new Guidelines at: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Wiki_Contribution_Guidelines All previous guidelines now refer to that page. Please stick to them when creating new content or when updating old. Pages that ignoring the guidelines will be dealt with more vicously from now on (read: they might just be deleted). Some of the categories are still overflowing with pages. Please note that the administration guidelines[1] say: Dont assign a page to multiple categories if one is an subcategories of another. Just use the most specific category. This eases reordering and reorganisation of categories. I already sorted out the Development (which had more than 200 members) and Writer categories, by creating subcategories and moving the content into them. A category with more than 100 members rarely helps anybody. Other categories still need help. The dev projects are asked to take responsibility for the pages in subcategories of Development and its subcategories. Please take a close look at the pages in the following categories: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:Calc (113 members) Please create subcategories and move the pages into the more specific subcategory.

Let's see.. operators_new_delete.cxx is in sal/cpprt/, the sal/cpprt/makefile.mk says TARGET=salcpprt, then for $(OS) != SOLARIS we have LIB1ARCHIV containing $(TARGET), so the resulting archive is libsalcpprt.a, which then per solenv/inc/$INPATH.mk and solenv/inc/tg_app.mk is linked to applications.

Linkage dependencies are not tracked, a long outstanding deficiency.. a (quite) safe bet is to rm */$INPATH/{lib,bin}/* and build all. Given that apparently only applications are affected here, a rm */$INPATH/bin/* might do as well. (b) A full build will incorporate my changes. It should not be long until _m76. The assertion failures are so distracting that I am considering removing the source line altogether from _m76 when it comes out. Strong veto. This is the only safe mechanism to detect these errors, which are real errors as the alloc/free procedures differ between array and non-array allocations. After all, it seems that most people do not even try to use a non-production build. IIRC the assertion is thrown only in a unxlng* non-product build, most developers using non-product builds unfortunately do this on Windows, developers building their own on Linux unfortunately don't use non-products because it has to be explicitly enabled during configure (to be changed?). So the set of developers actually using Linux non-products is quite small. If I had hope of being able to track down more causes, that would change my attitude. Please change your attitude nevertheless ;-) It seems you have hit an area that introduced these errors quite recently.

And finally, I find the act of lobbying for a no vote against a CC candidate quite without precedent, even more so since there was not even a single question, neither public nor privately, about my intentions or motivations, let alone a discussion.

[dev] Re: Re: OpenOffice.org Product Development
Hey Thorsten, I've just read your blog post and thought that I follow your advice and join the discussion here. You know that we've had a couple of discussions regarding OpenOffice.org as a product and the role of QA and UX in the whole process. And we did not agree on many things in these discussions due to totally different points of view regarding what should be the evetual outcome of our work or if there should be an outcone at all . Therefore, I must say that I got a bit scarred seeing you as a nominee for the position that has Product as a word in it's title. That there is noone else nominated scares me more, I admit that. However, I am worried not because I wouldn't know how much you love the project, I really do. Ironically, that is exactly the issue I am worried about. In my understanding, for this position you would need to love the product more than the project. And definitely more than code ;-) From my end-user driven perspective, the project exists for the love of the product, and the Product Development Representatives should coordinate the cooperative efforts of all OpenOffice.org projects towards one vision. A vision of OpenOffice.org as a product that brings true value to our project by providing true value to our users. Ultemately, it's the outcome that matters. Think of music or visual art for instance. It's a particular song people adore to listen to, or it's a famous painting that is being starred at in a museum. Though the creation of both might be thrilling, seeing your work, be it a song, a piece of visual art or even a piece of software, thriving in the context of the intended audience, making others a bit happier through your creation, evetually gives any artist true reward. My understanding of your position regarding OpenOffice.org as a product based on our discussion in Italy last year, and please correct me if I am wrong, is that code contributions or all kinds of engineering efforts in general are more important than their quality in terms of their product value and thus their value for the users. If I recall it correctly, you consider our current processes for functional quality (QA) and design quality (UX) as unnecessary impediments posed by a bureaucratic instance to maintain its influence on the project. I mean, at least to me, it's big gap in here that matters a lot for the position you are applying. Please don't get me wrong, it is certainly OK to have a different motivation for being in this project but to persue a role that is more outcome- and thus consumer-related requires a particular mind-set that is incongruous to your attutude as I currently know it. So far, you've been a valuable contributor from an engineering and and community-growing perspective. I by no means have the attempt to depriciate that. But in sum, I am uncertain that your convictions fit this particular role of a Product Development Representative. At least you'd have to convince me :-) Best, Andreas -- * Sun Microsystems GmbHAndreas Bartel Nagelsweg 55 User Experience Engineer 20097 HamburgPhone: (+49 40)23646 672 Germany Fax: (+49 40)23646 550 http://www.sun.com mailto:andreas.bar...@sun.com * Sitz der Gesellschaft: Sun Microsystems GmbH, Sonnenallee 1, D-85551 Kirchheim-Heimstetten Amtsgericht München: HRB 161028 Geschäftsführer: Thomas Schröder Hi Thorsten, all, Thorsten Behrens wrote: Hi Martin, *, this is in response to your blog post here: http://blogs.sun.com/ratte/entry/openoffice_org_product_development (I'll separately post a blog entry about this, but would prefer discussion on this mailing list) You wrote: The only candidate now for the non-code contributing projects for the next round of council elections will be Thorsten Behrens. he's a well known great supporter of the hacker driven Product Development, from my perspective a good representative of the code contributors.
