OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

Snowman · 2005-12-18 02:04:08

Here some info that I can give you from a quick test.
The patches are applied from within the $startdir/src/ooo-build-2.0.0.2/Makefile. Check the patch.apply target.

As for the recovery-report.diff patch, to apply it:
$ cp $startdir/src/ooo-build-2.0.0.2/patches/src680/recovery-report.diff $startdir/src/src680-m145
$ cd $startdir/src/src680-m145
$ patch -p0 < recovery-report.diff

However, it doesn't apply cleanly. You'll probably need to delete it or to see what changes it does to the source and to make a new one based on it.

HTH.

AndyRTR · 2005-12-18 22:00:53

I´ve added this to the bugreport:

I´m now testing with src680-m146 + daily snapshot. Both files being patched by
the recovery-report.diff are included in revision 1.5!

But the diff was done against version 1.2 and 1.3. I guess the
recovery-report.diff has to be droped or regenerated.

Andreas Radke

I guess the patch could be dropped for now.

There´s a list of patches in relation to the "--with-distro=foo" option. They´re listed in $startdir/src/ooo-build-2.0.0.2/patches/OOO_2_0/apply

Maybe we can comment there out the recovery-report.patch in line 65

# -------- [ Tag [ >= <tag> etc. ], ] patch sets --------

[ TemporaryHacks ]
# De Sun-ify the recovery report dialog - FIXME file up-stream
recovery-report.diff

Can you give me the right sed line for the pkgbuild?

AndyRTR · 2005-12-18 22:15:25

sed -i -e "s:recovery-report.diff:#recovery-report.diff:g" apply

I´ll test it.

edit: no. that was the wrong place.

AndyRTR · 2005-12-18 23:18:37

Shit. Did a silly mistake. I works that way. Next patch is the startup-fix.diff I have to look at. Seems to be the same.

Seems that the whole [ TemporaryHacks ] section ist broken.

But now I can go further

Dusty · 2005-12-18 23:27:47

haha, you're very tenacious. Thanks for trying!! I think you will succeeed!!

Dusty

AndyRTR · 2005-12-18 23:55:27

Yeah. I hope at the end you will have a master pkgbuild you can build up

AndyRTR · 2005-12-19 00:18:25

I´m nasty. I will do what I should have done straight from the beginning:

Steal parts of the frugalbuild

Their pkgbuild looks quiet equal. Expect they go with last stable build an add the daily build. Maybe this is one mistake I do. As long as we won´t have our own distrotag we need to use another one or we will have to fixe the used patches manually.

Now it should be easy to finish it.

Tomorrow will be another day. Good night for today.

Neuro · 2005-12-21 19:50:49

So how's the progress? I hope that now everything will work out just fine.

BTW. Could you please specify in the PKGBUILD that openoffice should use the system's freetype library? The binaries distributed by OOo.org have freetype statically linked into them and it doesn't use the auto-hinter (and some fonts look really ugly with it) because of patent issues. AFAIK Arch's default freetype uses the autohinter so linking to it would be great.

I googled a bit, but the only thing I found was :
http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/build_680_X11.html

Instead of using --with-freetype2=... you can also use --with-system-freetype

AndyRTR · 2005-12-23 18:31:16

Great improvements! Now I think I know the right way. This is the last pgkbuild:

Hm. Maybe we haven´t included the needed file :?:

I guess I´m not far from having success building the monster

Later the pkgbuild needs some cleanup and checking the depends/makedepend. I´ve taken them from frugalware.

Merry X-mas.

AndyRTR · 2005-12-23 19:12:10

OK, that´s fixed using "--with-firefox "

Next issue:

checking for firefox-nss ... Package firefox-nss was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `firefox-nss.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'firefox-nss' found
configure: error: Library requirements (firefox-nss ) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them

Hm. I´ve found that in the Firefox PKGBUILD :

#We don't provide includefiles for NSS anymore
  #NSPR isn't built anyways, remove pkgconfig files for it
  rm $startdir/pkg/opt/mozilla/lib/pkgconfig/firefox-ns{s,pr}.pc

Trying --without-nss now...

Edit: hm. no success.

I guess you need the nspr package (is a dependency of mozilla-firefox)

The files you are looing for are in:

nspr /usr/lib/pkgconfig/mozilla-nspr.pc
nspr /usr/lib/pkgconfig/nspr.pc

Just add /usr/lib/pkgconfig to your PKG_CONFIG_PATH and everything should be fine. Hope that helps.

I don't know why /usr/lib/pkgconfig isn't in the default PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Mine is the default:

[root@wintermute:~] echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
:/opt/kde/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/mozilla/lib/pkgconfig:
/opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/kde/lib/pkgconfig:
/opt/mozilla/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig

Perhaps this should be reported as a bug in Arch?

Neuro · 2005-12-23 20:43:39

As for your PKGBUILD, I'd rather trim these dependencies. They are.... HUGE to say the least.

depends=('perl' 'gtk2' 'gnome-vfs' 'libxml2' 'libart-lgpl' 'libsndfile' 
 'startup-notification' 'fontconfig' 'libpng' 'imagemagick' 'flex' 'mozilla-firefox' 'neon>=0.24.0' 
 'bison' 'zip' 'unzip' 'expat' 'cups' 'desktop-file-utils' 'perl-archive-zip' 'unixodbc')
 makedepends=('findutils' 'curl' 'intltool' 'tcsh' 'gcc' 'pam' 'qt' 
 'kdelibs' 'evolution-data-server' 'boost' 'icu' 'pam')

I guess we need only:
x-server
desktop-file-utils

As they are the dependencies for the stock openoffice build. And why is pam listed twice in makedeps? Or why is it listed at all? I just dont get that.

Still, good luck for you I hope some day Arch gets it's own openoffice build.

Don't mix nspr and nss!

Neuro wrote:

Did that with no success. OOo is looking for firefox-nss but there exists only mozilla-nss. I´m going to make a symlink. Hope to have permissions within pkgbuild.

So now it´s time to test it and improve it. Feel free to build it on your machine. Expect a few minutes your cpu will need to work on it

From now on I want our official package maintainers and TURs being more involved with it. Let´s discuss about all features and so on. I´ll keep on helping to improve it. But I´d rather work on porting it and other stuff to Arch64 8)

Some points I would like to discuss:
- how to menage language packs? follow frugal again?
- I´ll try if make -j2 works here too(-j3 breaks it every time); -j1 slows it down a lot on my dualcore baby :cry:
- depends & makedepends

So here´s my present to all you Archies

Great job! I'll put it under me tree, if it'll compile before the evening

So now it´s time to test it and improve it. Feel free to build it on your machine. Expect a few minutes your cpu will need to work on it

Well, I was eager to do so, but now... when I see 470 minutes on a Opteron (since dual proc doesn't count on -j 1) I'm scared to even start on my old AXp Barton 2500+ Maybe one day

Some points I would like to discuss:
- how to menage language packs? follow frugal again?
- I´ll try if make -j2 works here too(-j3 breaks it every time); -j1 slows it down a lot on my dualcore baby :cry:
- depends & makedepends
- are all these sources really needed(the 2 dll´s, sdk, ...)
- discuss about gtk, kde, cairo, hunspell, access, mono and so on :!:

I guess that gtk and kde should be made make deps. Theres no point in requiring the user to have them, since OOo can switch between it's UI toolkits on startup.

As for cairo, I'm all for it. Firefox 1.5 already requires it for SVG. I wouldn't like OOo to depend on mono though, it's just too... extensive Java... Well, a makedepend for sure, but since OOo can run fine without it (I'm doing so now, to reduce start speeds) I wouldn't put it into normal depends.

Could you please post an ldd of the soffice.bin?

Still, it's not for me to debate. I'm just a normal user who'd like Arch to have it's own OOo build Once again: great job Andy.

Merry, merry X-mas.

And the same to you

Looks like nobody else is interested in this package :cry:

Sadly it's true Maybe PM one of the devs or something?

It would be a terrible loss if this wasn't used in Arch...

I don't think alot of people here run a 64 bit system but I'm sure those who do are greatful. Good work AndyRTR.

AndyRTR · 2005-12-26 22:17:22

This pkgbuild is for arch32! I build for both systems ;-)

I started that one on arch32 and when it´s stable and ready I´ll port it to arch64. So now all Archies should discuss here!

Seems like noones interested except for Andy and me

Andy could you please build a package with slightly decreased dependencies (as I know not all of them are run-time ones)? Of course a Arch32 build I'd like to test it but I lack the horsepower (or rather patience) to build it myself.

Moo-Crumpus · 2005-12-29 10:02:12

No, I am interested, 2. i686 optimized OOo? Jummy. But I have to prepare my machine first, remove original OOo first. It would be a good idea to post the PKGBUILD to flyspray as a feature request. I'd prefer a native package against a binary install.

AndyRTR · 2005-12-29 11:22:00

Optimized packages will be much better. But we have to extract the language packs to reduce the download size.

[andyrtr@workstation64 courier-imap]$ ls -l /mnt/arch32/var/abs/local/openoffice.org/ooo-daily-2.0.1-1.pkg.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 andyrtr users 515803273 2005-12-24 06:42 /mnt/arch32/var/abs/local/openoffice.org/ooo-daily-2.0.1-1.pkg.tar.gz

That´s quiet huge. Ok. Lets discuss about all the features. Did anyone rebuild the monster locally and did a test? What´s working and what not? I didn´t install it so far.

I´m currently doing other stuff for arch64. Later I will go back to OOo on both systems.

AndyRTR · 2006-01-03 14:04:53

I can´t see why my package is so big. The frugalware package is about 195MB + 25 language packages located in their extry repo each around 1MB. Maybe one of the configure options blows it up(java?).

Lets summarize what options are usefull and which are not.

I hope there will be another packager to do some tests for archlinux 32bit. But hurry up. Or arch64 will have it first in its repo

Moo-Crumpus · 2006-01-03 15:27:52

can't we ask them - the frugalware peoples?
