Alright, thanks for the reply.  So, I tried to install the dependencies, but
I ran into some problems.  There were requests all over the place to change
the architecture for lots of software from x86-64 to normal.  should I go
through with all of these changes, or did I do something wrong?

Hi Jerry,

       First - welcome to LibreOffice :-) most of these questions are best
asked on IRC, but lets archive some of the answers here.

Alright, so I just got off of irc.freenode.net, and now have another
question.  For some odd reason, make fetch does not work.  It gives me
an error, make: nothing to be done for 'fetch'

        That basically means - it has already fetched everything :-) that
is a
good sign.

                Alright, thanks for all the help so far.  To answer
                your questions, I'm using openSuse 11.2, on a fairly
                new dual core laptop.

        Oooh - old software on new hardware - fun :-)

                 zypper si -d OpenOffice_org-bootstrap # for OpenSUSE,
                but I recieve an error about how the
                OpenOffice_org-bootstrap doesn't exist.

        Ah - it is probable that you need the main OSS repositories
enabled; at
least - I believe we had the split build in 11.2 (which bootstrap is
from). Perhaps it is better to add the repository here:

       sudo zypper ar
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_11.2/lo-unstable

       And then do the zypper si -d command (you could also install RC1
pre-built to have a play).

                 So, as far as I can tell, the problem is with this
                line of code:     PR_STATIC_ASSERT(sizeof(size_t) <=
                4); in function

        Nurgh; still. I suspect this is some dependency problem that we
need to
check more carefully in configure. Petr - have you seen this before ?

So, just one more thing before I go do something else...is it fine if
I exclude modules?

        In general, if you hack pieces out of the build blindly, you will
eventually cause far more trouble than you solve :-) it is usually
better to try to trouble-shoot why it is not working in the first
instance, as every problem may have a root issue that causes many other
problems in turn.

 I got around the nss thing by disabling it when I
was running ./autogen.sh.  Now, I have an error in graphite where "CPU
you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set"  I do have a 64
bit computer, as I neglected to mention.  Should I just disable these
modules so I can at least get a build, or should I try to get a
solution?

        Wow :-) that's more fun indeed; again - Petr may be able to help,
you
really need all the dependencies installed right (hopefully the above
helps).

       All the best !

               Michael.
