 Posted: Tue Dec 21, 2004 6:43 pm Post subject: openoffice-1.1.4 is out |
 |
|
openoffice-1.1.4 is out, if you would like to have a head start (as it is not yet in the portage tree):
1) get the source for openoffice-1.1.4, and place it into your DISTDIR
2) copy /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/files/1.1.3
to /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/files/1.1.4
3) copy /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/openoffice-1.1.3-r1.ebuild
to /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/openoffice-1.1.4.ebuild
4) edit /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/openoffice-1.1.4.ebuild
and change
| Code: |
S="${WORKDIR}/OOo_${PV}_src"
|
to
then
| Code: |
cd /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice
ebuild openoffice-1.1.4.ebuild digest
emerge openoffice
|
it is a good idea to place the ebuild & co files in your portage
overlay, so change /usr/portage to "the path to your overlay dir"
voila
hth
happy gentooing
PS it's emerging right now, so far not problems, will let you
know how it goes.
UPDATE:
emerged successfully had USE="-java" as i had issues with USE="java", with 1.1.3, not sure whether it's compiler related,
as i'm using gcc-3.4.x cvs.
anyways, since my ccache is fully populated now, i'm going to try
with USE="java", and will report the results.

. . . .and the only reason to do this instead of waiting for it to be merged into portage is because it takes a f*cking long time to compile from sources. . .right?  |

Yeah, it takes about 7 hours on my P4 2 Ghz machine. I am really waiting for OO.o 2 to come out before I install that. KOffice takes less time and does what I need until then.

you should O/C your CPU
hth
happy gentooing
PS now if we could only make parallel build work with OOo...
if you receive M$ office docs, koffice will not do the job, OOo is
much better with these, if you can afford it, then you can deal
with that by having M$-win-XX and M$-office-xx, but this is
way out of my budget, also even if the the M$ stuff is gratis,
i would rather remain where I am, as i find the M$ environment
rather nauseating... |

Now, don't get me wrong. I love OO - it's just that my punny Celeron 1.4Ghz takes a day or so to compile it  The time "saved" by hacking the ebuild before it gets put into the official release just isn't worth it for my machine.
I'll look into OC'ing it once I have gentoo perfectly stable and get the desire to fix things. |

And if you don't want the next sync to mess with your new ebuild you could use the portage overlay directory instead  |

I don't think overclocking will help me that much!  |

OOo 1.1.4 is a bugfix-only release over 1.1.3 so if you are having no bug problems maybe it's best not to bother.
The other thing is that I don't think that there is a serious speed advantage to compiling OOo as opposed to openoffice-bin. I was in a discussion about this before on this site, and the conclusion was that the time OOo takes to load (for any particular version) had more to do with how well your system is optimised than whether OOo itself is. Strange but true.
I have looked at 1.9.62 build of OOo and 2.0 does promise to be very good indeed. In terms of speed it seems to take just as long to start, but once up, Writer seems more responsive. Visually it integrates with GTK-2 (when I used XFCE -- but for KDE it does not use GTK-2 widgets and still looks ugly -- shame).
A nice touch is that you can use .png files for the icons, so you can copy them over from kde/gnome icons and improve the look.
