I'm wondering if anyone can help me with my libreoffice build from
source problem. Meanwhile I did two trials, one on solaris and one
on suse 11.4.
Both failed at the point where the real source is required to "make"
libreoffice.
The automatic fetch from the web seems not to work since there are
some web servers missing.
There is no hint how to spreadout the tarball of source code so that
it is recognized by the configre and make.
So the bootstrap procedure foreseen in the bootstrap package seems
to be broken.
If you need to port LibreOffice and build from source tarballs, it would be
best to start with the current development version (which will become 3.5.0);
the number of distribution files has been considerably reduced and changes
can be integrated more easily.
Have a look at this Makefile, it describes a minimal set of tarballs
needed to get a build going:
http://pkgsrc-wip.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pkgsrc-wip/wip/libreoffice/Makefile?hideattic=1&revision=1.17&view=markup
You'll need the core dictionaries and help files, and the ones described in
the MORE_DISTFILES list
If you run pkgsrc on your systems, the package should at the bare minimum
download the files for you.
