Installation of OpenOffice
Apply the downloaded patches and copy gpc files.
mv ../gpc231/* external/gpc &&
rm -rf ../gpc231 &&
for p in ../openoffice-&openoffice-version;-*.patch
do patch -Np1 -i $p
done
If you want to optimize the build, edit
solenv/inc/unxlngi4.mk and add the desired optimization
flags to CFLAGSOPT variable. Some users have reported problems with
-fomit-frame-pointer. The best option is to not use any custom optimizations.
The following command removes an incorrect -mcpu option in the above file.
cd solenv/inc &&
cp unxlngi4.mk unxlngi4.mk.orig &&
sed -e "s:\-mcpu=pentiumpro::" \
unxlngi4.mk.orig > unxlngi4.mk &&
cd ../..
Configure openoffice using the following commands. You may build install
sets for only specific languages based on your preferences. If a particular component is not available
in the language of your choice, the default will be English. The following option
compiles all available languages.
cd config_office/ &&
./configure --with-lang=ALL &&
cd ..
Compile OpenOffice using the following commands.
./bootstrap &&
bash -c "source LinuxIntelEnv.Set.sh; dmake"
If you have downloaded localized helpcontent zip files, you will need
to unzip them to the appropriate directory as mentioned below and then recreate
the installation set.
cd solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/pck &&
for i in $(ls ../../../../../helpcontent_*_unix.tgz)
do
tar -xvzf $i
done &&
cd ../../../../instsetoo &&
rm -rf unxlngi4.pro &&
dmake &&
cd ..
Install OpenOffice using the following
commands. The following commands install the English language set. To install a localized version, replace the
01 by the international telephone country code for your country. Note that when
installing, it needs a X Display, even though there
is no visible X window. You
can use Xvfb if you are compiling on a console.
cd instsetoo/unxlngi4.pro/01/normal &&
cp install install.orig &&
sed -e "s:^oo_home=.*:oo_home=openoffice:" install.orig > install &&
./install --prefix=/opt &&
for appl in swriter scalc sdraw simpress smath soffice
do ln -sf /opt/openoffice/program/$appl /usr/bin/$appl
done
