Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

Today I saw that openoffice package was replaced by openoffice-devel. The description says "Renamed openoffice package to openoffice-devel in preparation for the next openoffice update in extra.". So we can expect openoffice 2.2 in extra? Isn't going to be maintained in AUR anymore?

Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

I'm happy to learn that.
Because I was afraid of the 8GB HD space/10hours necessary to build the package from AUR PKGBUILD.
Thanks for that.

Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

Just to let you know I have OpenOffice-2.1-sdk/odk with finnish spell checking and hyphenation packages in my repo. http://www.kotikone.fi/purch Both i686 and x86_64 are supported.

Minor issue in my oo package is I forgot to put conflicts=('openoffice-base') to PKGBUILD. Provides array is there and so remove openoffice-base before using this sdk/odk package. Otherwise they are ok and working.

I will update after oo-2.2 is out for both platforms. I hope hussam is able to do oo-sdk-2.2, so I dont have to

Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

we have already OOo 2.2.0 in x86_64 repos now.

can you tell me what the sdk/odk part exactly provides and what for you need it? just a question: shouldn't it be possible to build it using the offivial PKGBUILD from cvs adding sdk part and making an additional package?

Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

Only the compile of the openoffice-voikko requires sdk part. http://voikko.sourceforge.net/source-linux.html

Atm I have to provide openoffice-2.1 too, because there is no such in repos or AUR anymore.

Re: OpenOffice2 - the final attemp

Works niece so far, but please lets remove this ugly xp-like splash screen. Just use the default spalsh from oo.
