How I got Openoffice 1.1.3 to compile on my laptop:
portinstall java/jdk14
portinstall openoffice
note: 'portinstall java/jdk14' installs the natively compiled FreeBSD 
version of Java, and as a dependency (for the build only) installs the 
linux JDK.

PS- Yes, this does mean the port is broken.

Many thanks - I'll give that a go tonight (too many late nights lately).  I
knew I got it to work in the past, but couldn't remember how.

I was starting to suspect that :-(

OpenOffice - Java problems

2004-12-13 Thread Dave Horsfall
I'm trying to compile OpenOffice 1.1 for FreeBSD 4.10 (may as well 
exercise the lap-top).  After grabbing all the Linuxy bits for Java JDK14, 
I now find it wants a Solaris library under /compat/svr4/lib (libc.so.2 or 
similar), and this is found only on a Solaris/86 CD, which of course not 
being a licensee I don't have.

So, I give up and install the package instead, but the installation 
window says it can't find a Java Runtime Environment, and would I like to 
run without one?  Sure, I metaphorically say, only to have it say that 
some functionality will be lost - OK? - and drops me back to the choice 
box again.  Catch-22.

I have got an earlier version to install (from the package), but I have no 
idea how it handled the Java stuff, so has anyone managed to 
compile/install OpenOffice on FreeBSD 4.10 (no updates)?
