openoffice-ximian-1.1.0 [now osbolete]

Message

Post by **suka** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 2:21 pm

This is now obsolete, please use the version from portage instead!

No this ain't no joke at all

- the ebuild for openoffice-ximian-1.1.0 is here! Get it while it's hot:

The usual How-to install:

Just download it and extract to /usr/local/portage (or whereever you set your PORTDIR_OVERLAY to). After that

Code: Select all

emerge openoffice-ximian

and wait for some hours.

What has changed since RC5: (aside from the version upgrade)

1) The most notable change: Language support is now working! If you want to install it in your language emerge the ebuild with

Code: Select all

LANGUAGE="xx" emerge openoffice-ximian

Look here for the right 2-digit-Code for your language (it's the telephone code):

http://l10n.openoffice.org/all_supported_languages.html

I can't guarantee that all of them will work, so just try it out

2 things to note about language support:

Help is not localized atm
If you experience strange startup (or other) problems with a localized build make sure that your LANG variable is set to the same language you built openoffice-ximian with. If this is not the case (or you don't want to have this globally for whatever reason), set the LANG variable in front of the application start command. For Instance, if you want to start a french oowriter do:
Code: Select all
```
LANG="french" oowriter
```
REMEMBER: This is ONLY necessary if you experience startup problems with a localized build! If it works for you without this just forget about it

2) It now should compile again with gcc 3.2.x (So that all you Openoffice-ximian-lovers who are on stable can try again)

3) Lots of cleanups in the ebuild

4) Oh and did I mention that it uses now OpenOffice.org 1.1.0 final?

Update to -r1 [031003]:

1) Just a version bump to the latest ximian patches and icons (and some ebuild cleanup associated with that)

Update to -r2 [031009]:

1) Another update to the latest ximian patches and icons, this one is especially nice as it elimantes the need for another one of our patches

Update to -r3 [031102]:

1) Update to the latest patcchset from Ximian, which brings us the great joys of dropping the java dependency! Also there are lots of fixes.

2) Quite a lot adjustments to the ebuild which should make some people woh couldn't build it until now happy

As always: Some important notes about this version:

1) It compiles and installs fine for me, but I can't promise it will for you. OpenOffice has a lot of build problems, some of them SHOULD be gone with this version, some new might have been introduced, who knows... So: Good luck!

2) If you did install one of the older ebuilds and have problems starting up Openoffice.org after the emerge try to delete the ~/.openoffice dir and ~/.sversionrc

What makes this so different to plain openoffice?:

Because this question seems to get asked all the time:

http://primates.ximian.com/~michael/gua ... 3/OOo.html

and

http://www.ximian.com/products/desktop/ ... openoffice

are good starters, although they are not complete as Ximian has added a lot more patches since the 1.0.3 release.

Enjoy

Thanks for the language support.

I'm going to test it now.

Don't wanna look like a lazy boy, but I'd love a binary package for Pentium 3

I am running the RC5 from a binary package and it is the best thing after sliced potato bread.

pilla · Post by **pilla** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 3:40 pm

BTW, can I emerge it localized to two languages? I guess I do not

Actually you could emerge it in 2 languages but not install them both

That's a problem of the setup process I am afraid...

What's the main difference here? Only the menus, or different dictionaries?

Edit BTW, http://linorg.usp.br/OpenOffice.org/stable/ is a good choice if you are in Brazil... 20x faster downloads

Dictionaries in other languages are not in the build.
They will install with OOodi.

Code: Select all

emerge ooodi

I second the binary package option, but for athlonxp. It would save me maybe 8+ hours of compiling.

Okay, changed to march=pentium3 and things are working great. Perhaps add an additional filter flag?

great work suka!!!

do you know if the copy & paste problem is still there?

IMO, Ximian patches are essential to the use of openoffice. This isn't to put down the OO developers, just to say the polishing of Ximian really helps.

Yinchie · Post by **Yinchie** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 8:09 pm

Blah, I had RC5 compiled yesterday in 6 hours and 44 minutes and 17 seconds time with CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -Os -pipe -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr -funroll-loops -fpic"

Guess I have to compile it again to 1.1.0 FINAL.
Time to sleep

Cicero · Post by **Cicero** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 8:11 pm

Won't build here. Possibly NPTL?

BTW, RC5 became final. It's the same thing.

sparks · Post by **sparks** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 8:35 pm

what are the chances of getting this ebuild in the official portage tree?

Lovechild · Post by **Lovechild** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 8:54 pm

Suka, you are like a mad man - 1.1 was barely released and here you are ready with ximian ebuilds tested and all.

lorenb · Post by **lorenb** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 9:01 pm

I got it complied/packaged with:

Kernel: 2.6.0-test6
CFLAGS: -O3 -march=pentium3 -funroll-loops -pipe (not sure what gets stripped by ebuild)
gcc/glibc: 3.3.1-r4 / 2.3.2-r1
OpenSSL: 0.9.7c
Java: blackdown-jdk-1.4.1
Gnome: 2.4.0

Thanks Suka!

If someone has a place to host the binary package for downloading, I'd be willing to upload it.

Ximian OpenOffice 1.1 is even better integrated in the Gnome Desktop then GTK+2 applications like the Gimp (1.3.x). Drag an drop of Images drom Nautilus to a OO.o Document without a problem (I don't see Gimp doing this). Sending a document starts Evolution (Contrast this with the Gimp sending a Image).

In short a fine job to integrate this (none Gnome/GTK) Office suite into the Gnome Desktop in such a short time.

My install drops on gnome-cups-manager-0.17.

Looks like I don't have libgnomeui/gnome-icon-theme.h? Can anyone here run a qpkg -f on that file and find out what ebuild installs it?

nekonoko · Post by **nekonoko** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 9:42 pm

Cool, I'm building it now! I have an old pre-XP Athlon (1.3GHz) so I expect it'll finish in 10-12 hours

kKDu · Post by **kKDu** » Wed Oct 01, 2003 9:44 pm

gnome-icon-theme.h [...] what ebuild installs it?

The ebuild is libgnomeui-*

By the way language support seems to work, it is still compiling

Got it. Had libgnomeui-2.0.6 or there abouts, upgrading to 2.2 fixed me up for compiling that particular app.

I just finished a binary build for us stable (boring) people...

It's built with:

Kernel: 2.4.21
CFLAGS: -mcpu=i586 -O2
OpenSSL: 0.9.6j

So it should work with anything better than a Pentium classic (and no, I don't believe you'll see any difference on a athlon-xp optimized build).

If you want it, you can get it at:
