OpenOffice-2.0.3

Apply all of the downloaded patches:

for PATCH in ../OOo_2.0.3-*.patch
    do patch -Np1 -i ${PATCH}
done

If you wish to build an in-tree Mozilla, as opposed to using a system wide installation, copy the Mozilla source tarball into the source tree:

cp ../mozilla-source-1.7.5.tar.gz moz/download/

If you want to optimize the build, edit the appropriate makefile in solenv/inc/ and add the desired optimization flags to the CFLAGSOPT variable. The makefiles are arch specific, for instance edit solenv/inc/unxlngi6.mk for i686. Some users have reported problems with -fomit-frame-pointer. The best option is to not use any custom optimizations. The following command removes an incorrect -mcpu option in several of the makefiles:

sed -i '/^ARCH_FLAGS\*=/d' solenv/inc/unx{lngi{4,5,6},fbsdi}.mk

Configure OpenOffice using the following commands:

cd config_office/ &&
autoreconf &&
./configure --prefix=/opt/openoffice-2.0.3 \
    --enable-libart --disable-fontooo --disable-gnome-vfs \
    --without-fonts --with-system-stdlibs --with-system-freetype \
    --with-system-expat --with-system-libxml --with-system-zlib \
    --enable-build-mozilla --with-build-version=BLFS \
    --with-package-format=native --disable-binfilter &&
cd ..

OpenOffice fails to compile if umask is set to something exotic. The build can also fail if the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables are set. Use the following commands to change your environment accordingly:

umask 0022 &&
unset LANG LC_ALL

Compile OpenOffice using the following commands:

./bootstrap &&
. LinuxIntelEnv.Set.sh &&
dmake

This package does not come with a test suite.

Install OpenOffice as the root user with the following commands:

cd instsetoo_native/unxlngi6.pro/OpenOffice/\
native/install/en-US/linux-2.6-intel/buildroot/opt &&
cp -r -v openoffice.org2.0 /opt/openoffice-2.0.3

Still as the root user:

for appl in sbase scalc sdraw simpress smath soffice spadmin swriter
do
    ln -v -sf /opt/openoffice-2.0.3/program/$appl /usr/bin/$appl
done

The icons are not installed by default. While still the root user, install the icons with the following commands:

cd ../../../../../../../../../sysui/desktop/icons &&
install -v -d /usr/share/icons/{HighContrast,hicolor,locolor} -m755 &&
cp -r -v HighContrast/*x* /usr/share/icons/HighContrast &&
cp -r -v hicolor/*x* /usr/share/icons/hicolor &&
cp -r -v locolor/*x* /usr/share/icons/locolor

If you have installed desktop-file-utils-0.12 and use KDE, there is no further configuration necessary. If you use Gnome, you should copy the *.desktop files to /usr/share/applications with the following commands as the root user:

install -v -d /usr/share/applications -m 755 &&
cd /opt/openoffice-2.0.3/share/xdg/ &&
for appl in *.desktop
do
    sed -i '/Exec/d' $appl
    echo "Exec=/usr/bin/s`echo $appl | sed 's/.desktop//'`" >> $appl
    sed -i '/Icon/d' $appl
    echo "Icon=`echo $appl | sed 's/.desktop//'`" >> $appl
done &&
sed -i 's@bin/sprinteradmin@bin/spadmin@' printeradmin.desktop &&
cp -v *.desktop /usr/share/applications

Finally, if you'd like to edit OpenOffice documents directly from Mozilla or Firefox, create a symbolic link in your plugins directory to /opt/openoffice-2.0.3/program/libnpsoplugin.so. Additionally, you must enable the plugin from the Internet Options within any OpenOffice application.
