Only the menus, dictionaries you can install how much you want with ooodi, like kKDu already said |

For some reason all the menu items, when hilighted are white, preventing me from seeing them.
Anyone else encounter this? |

I think we will have to wait and see, I posted a few versions to bugs.gentoo.org in the past, so if they want them, they already have them
But I understand it is difficult to integrate an ebuild that complex as there has to be some dev taking care of it and the only one working on OpenOffice.org atm is pauldv, so I think he has already a lot to do with the "clean" versions |

I think I heard of this problem before, try to change your GTK-Theme and see if that changes anything |

I see, that is a big job to handle, but you've done a great job with this and I bet more people would use it if it were in the official tree.

Could be difficult. The Ximian people would like me to use their build system instead of ours, which requires a lot of work (and so a lot of time which I don't have atm - my boss already hates me for not having finished that damn Gentoo 1.4 test until now ) to get the ebuild adapted (basically rewritten). In the long term I think it is the right way to go, as we will be getting Openoffice-ximian support "out of the box" which will also benefit the whole Openoffice-ximian project.
Until then I don't think they are too happy with bug reports from Gentoo people, as it could - theoretically - also be a bug in the ebuild |

Great job on the ebuild Suka!
I've gone ahead and mirrored the ebuild on breakmygentoo.net and would be willing to host binary packages for whoever needs it. Just drop an email to matt at breakmygentoo.net and I'll get it posted... _________________ [urlhttp://www.breakmygentoo.net]BreakMyGentoo[/url] - Unstable Gnome and more... |

Just tried to emerge Nylle's pre-built package, and I get this error Code: | root@sidious$ emerge ./openoffice-ximian-1.1.0.tbz2
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) app-office/openoffice-ximian-1.1.0 to /
!!! CATEGORY info missing from info chunk, aborting...
| Any idea what could be causing this? I checked the md5sum, and it's correct... |

I emerged Nylle binary package and ... guess what? ... now it works
only problem left that when opening some excel files, numbers get screwed (same files open correctly in vanilla oo). anyone else having the same problem? |

I also get:

>>> emerge (1 of 1) app-office/openoffice-ximian-1.1.0 to /

I checked the md5sum as well!
When I try to bunzip2 it, I get:
Code: | bunzip2: openoffice-ximian-1.1.0.tbz2: trailing garbage after EOF ignored |
could that be a problem? The tar -xvf works ok (it seems)

Some newbie-type questions before I attempt ebuild:
1) I already have openoffice-1.0.3 installed. Will emerging oo-ximian remove 1.0.3 or leave it? If it leaves it, do they co-exist or do I need to do something?
2) I have Gnome 2.4 installed. Will installing oo-ximian alter the Gnome desktop or any other aspect of Gnome?
3) The ebuild indicates IUSE="gnome kde nptl" Should these be set as USE flags (the installation instructions in this thread doesn't indicate so)? As mentioned, Gnome is installed; KDE, too.
Thanks in advance for feedback. |

1) If you run an 'emerge -p' you will find that the stock openoffice is a blocker. You'll need to 'emerge -C' it first.
2) No
3) Setting the gnome USE flag would be a good idea since ximian is basically a branch of GNOME and the kde flag won't hurt if KDE is already installed. You probably should have both set anyway if you use them. nptl is not on Gentoo's list of USE flags. Don't know what that does.
BTW, it's been compiling a little over six hours. It should be done any minute. I'm making a tbz2 with -march=i686 -O2, so I can use it on my dual Athlon desktop and PIII laptop. If there's interest in such an animal I can check with Lin_Matt about hosting. |

What if I needed support for the Mozilla Address Book?
Would removing the patch compile it in? |

The CATEGORY thingie is some portage bug that has been haunting the binary builds for some time. Check the posts in this old oo-ximian thread for some suggestions on how to solve it. _________________ "Do you hear that sound your Highness?"

It just provides a patch for people who have their glibc compiled with nptl (which is the latest and greatest threading thing from Red Hat) |

Okay got it built and working. I noticed this time it doesn't have the custom Ximian splash while starting up - a problem with my install or just a change to the sources? The about dialog still has the Ximian logo.
Looks good - thanks for the effort on this! _________________ Ecchi nano wo ikenai to omoimasu! |

Tiny question: When I use Ximian-Oo.o in KDE, I have to adjust my tools->option->Openoffice.org->views to 120% in order to get a readable GUI. However, with this same setting in Gnome, the GUI size is absurdly big.
Is there a clever way to use Ximian-Oo.o in both KDE and Gnome without chaging to view-size all the time Thanks! |
