|
|
Hi, I would like to install openoffice ux.pl version from here but there is only rpm/deb version.
Is there any way I could have it on my gentoo installed? I know there latest openoffice is localized, etc, but I'm sticked to this maintainer (mainly on windows). I'd appreciate any help. _________________ Read GMN

kfiaciarka,
Maybe - it depends on what it needs in the way of dependancies.
Fetch the rpm version and run rpm2targz on the .rpm you get.
You can then untar the tarball with tar -zvxf <tarball>
Look inside the new directory it creates for a README or some other file with instructions.
It may be as simple as copying a dir tree to /opt _________________ Regards,

There is abuot 20 rpm inside archive :/ Is there faster way? I can see some packages in portage which are installed from rpm. Is there some rule to follow when installing something from rpm? _________________ Read GMN

kfiaciarka,
It would be a nice touch if the ebuild errors and warnings were in Polish too. _________________ Regards,

I am the author of mentioned ebuild and it is first time that I hear that any ebuild would need to be in any other language than english... I can change that if it suppose to be like that according to some ebuild rules or guidelines. IMHO it wouldn't have any chance getting in the official portage tree if I do so.
Ebuild works well if it is just used properly, that is together with the files placed in "files" directory. _________________ Sky is not the limit... |

ryszardzonk,
Maybe I am proposing a whole new project - Portage Localisation.
You have a point about non-english error messages. _________________ Regards,

That is not a bad idea. And not to hard to implement either. What I personaly sugest is to replace with the sed magic all the instances of error messages like "configure failed" with "${conffail} for instance. Then it would be a job of yet another eclass to read users ${LANG} and display error in his/hers language of choice. If something like this already is in use than I just failed to notice it... _________________ Sky is not the limit... |
