Please note I take no responsibility if you hose your system.
This is what I did to install it quickly
(Download the tar.gz from openoffice to the oo3 folder in your home directory)
| Code: | cd ~/oo3
tar xzvf OOo_3.0.0beta_20080429_LinuxIntel_install_en-US.tar.gz
cd BEA300_m2_native_packed-2_en-US.9301/
mkdir TAR
mkdir EXTRACT
cd RPMS
for i in *; do rpm2tar ${i}; done
mv *.tar ../TAR
cd ../TAR
for i in *; do tar xvf ${i} -C ../EXTRACT |
That's it, you can now `cd ~/oo3/BEA300_m2_native_packed-2_en-US.9301/EXTRACT/opt/openoffice.org3/program/`
and execute the binaries (ie `./soffice`)
Someone smarter than me may be able to integrate this better to coexist with oo2, but I just did a path in the mean time:
Open ~/.bashrc with a text editor.
edit or create a line like this:
export PATH=/home/<USERNAME>/oo3/BEA300_m2_native_packed-2_en-US.9301/EXTRACT/opt/openoffice.org3/program/:$PATH
NOTE THE oo3 path comes before :$PATH
then run `source ~/.bashrc`
Now you can run all the apps from terminal, sdraw, swriter, simpress, scalc, etc
I just created an Icon that runs soffice and open the app I need from there.
Note that everything except soffice in oo2 was prefixed with oo (such as oocalc) but in 3 beta it is prefixed with s (such as scalc).
Also note this does not effect mime-types (if you double click and ods file it will still open oo2)
When it comes time to uninstall:
rm -fr ~/oo3
Open .bashrc and return the "export PATH" back to it's original state
source ~/.bashrc |

| Thanks. After all I decided to do it your way. OOo3b really works fine from rpm. Maybe somebody will make an ebuild for it later, but now it is everything I need. Thank you for your idea and have a nice day |

I'd like to make a special request...
When openoffice-bin-3.x is released, can we PLEASE have an option to install the version with BCI enabled for freetype? I really really don't want to compile from source AGAIN. |

| For some reason, when I attempt to use OpenOffice 3, X completely freezes and uses 100% CPU. Running "soffice" from the console, I get a warning about how it can't find the Java Runtime Environment. |

Actually, I think I may have found a bug. I was using RealVNC... so apparently there is a bug between the Xorg VNC module and OpenOffice-3... interesting |

If you are running an amd64 system with any x86 java-VM or you haven't set eselect(?) to work with a proper java-VM that is what you get.
The problem remains since 2.x versions if your problem is what I am suspecting [...]
PS:// Have you checked out your $JAVA_HOME environment?

Sorry for pushing up the old thread, I did not find any newer...
Is there any new information about this? I'd also like to install openoffice 3 from source. |

Any update on a source based ebuild? I'm surprised one isn't in portage; big applications like this usually get beta ebuilds.

There's this one at bugzilla- I haven't tried it, but it might work. However, the comments posted don't sound too encouraging, but maybe it could be improved? http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233465

openoffice-bin != source-based
Though the bug title and summary make it seem that it is for openoffice but the actual ebuild there is for openoffice-bin |

I was able to build the latest openoffice3 in the tree and it works fine, but it looks very ugly. Anyone know why it's not following my system's gtk2's theme?

Same here. I don't have pam installed too. I already wrote a bug-report for 3.0.0_beta2. And I wrote a new one into the same thread:

Has anyone managed to get spellcheck working on openoffice-bin-3.0.0_rc2?
It doesn't seem to be enabled by default and I can't find an english language extension for it here. There are dictionaries in /usr/lib/openoffice/share/dict/ooo/, but they don't seem to help (they're from a myspell package, which supposedly I can't use with openoffice-bin).
If it matters, it's built with USE="-gnome -java -kde" LINGUAS="en_GB".
I can set the language of the document to English (UK), but it doesn't seem to have a dictionary associated with it. |

Same trouble here. I thought it worth bumping since it is pointless to create docs without the ability to spell check. |
