Yopai: /* Additional Required Packages */ libgstreamer

This tutorial will assume a stock [http://www.ubuntu.com/download Ubuntu] 5.10 (Breezy) system as a starting point.

===Obtaining ooo-build===
One may obtain the stable 2.0.2 version of <code>ooo-build</code> via CVS with the following commands:
<pre>
export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
cvs login
cvs -z3 checkout -P ooo-build
cvs update -Pd -r ooo-build-2-0-2
</pre>
You should then enter the <code>ooo-build</code> directory and run <code>./autogen.sh --with-distro=Ubuntu</code>. Most likely you'll also want to add the <code>--disable-kde</code> flag (unless you're using [http://www.kubuntu.org/ Kubuntu]).

===Additional Required Packages===
Packages may be obtained as follows:

sudo apt-get install ''package_name [additional_package(s)]''

To obtain the source, you need:
*cvs

To complete <code>autogen.sh</code>, you need:
*automake1.9
*build-essential
*libpam0g-dev
*libpng12-dev
*flex
*bison
*libgtk2.0-dev

For <code>make</code> to finish its configuration stage, you need:
*tcsh
*libcupsys2-dev
*java-gcj-compat-dev
*libarchive-zip-perl
*libjpeg62-dev
*libxml2-dev
*python-dev
*libdb4.3-dev
*libdb4.3-java-dev
*libcurl3-dev
*unixodbc-dev
*libldap2-dev
*mozilla-dev
*libnss-dev
*libsane-dev
*libxaw-headers
*libaudio-dev
*libsndfile1-dev
*libneon24-dev
*libgnomevfs2-dev
*kdebase-dev (KDE only?)
*libstartup-notification0-dev
*ant
*libdbus-glib-1-dev (Ubuntu version is not high enough! 0.36.2 < 0.60)
*firefox-dev (if --with-firefox used)
*libgstreamer0.10-dev
*libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev

Far into the ''main build commencing'' section, you'll realize you need these:
*?

*??libmono-dev
*''[please help populate the rest of this list!]''

===Necessary ./configure Flags===
*'''--disable-gtk''' — This has to be disabled, otherwise <code>make</code> will get hung up on the dbus-glib-1 version 0.60 requirement. The highest version of that package available for Ubuntu is 0.36.2.

===Failed patches===
[[Talk:Ubuntu_Build_Instructions#Failed_Patches|Some of the patches]] listed in <code>ooo-build/patches/src680/apply</code> may not apply successfully. You can try to comment them out in the <code>apply</code> file, but this is an experimental solution...

===Tips===
A shell script like the one below will alert your attention upon completion of the quite lengthy build process. Run it after <code>./download</code> completes in place of <code>make</code>.
<pre>
#!/bin/bash
echo "Starting 'make' wrapper..."
cd ~/ooo-build
/usr/bin/time --quiet -f %E make
echo "Compilation finished."
mplayer -really-quiet ~/Music/My_Music_File.mp3
</pre>

For the purpose of this tutorial, save the file as <code>make_wrapper.sh</code>. To make it executable, type <code>chmod 744 make_wrapper.sh</code>.

===Development Environment Preparation Script===
'''Note:''' User interaction is required first to enter a password for apt-get, and again much later to hit Enter when prompted for a CVS password.
<pre>
#!/bin/bash
echo "Starting Ubuntu ooo-build preparations..."

sudo apt-get -y install cvs automake1.9 build-essential libpam0g-dev libpng12-dev flex bison libgtk2.0-dev \
tcsh libcupsys2-dev java-gcj-compat-dev libarchive-zip-perl libjpeg62-dev libxml2-dev python-dev libdb4.3-dev \
libdb4.3-java-dev libcurl3-dev unixodbc-dev libldap2-dev mozilla-dev libnss-dev libsane-dev libxaw-headers \
libaudio-dev libsndfile1-dev libneon24-dev libgnomevfs2-dev libstartup-notification0-dev ant

export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
cvs login
cvs -z3 co -P ooo-build
cvs up -Pd -r ooo-build-2-0-2

echo "Preparations complete."

cd ~/ooo-build
./autogen.sh --with-distro=Ubuntu --disable-kde
./download

#Now comment out failing patch:
cp patches/src680/apply patches/src680/apply~
sed 's/^ubuntu-dictionary\.diff/#&/' <patches/src680/apply~ >patches/src680/apply
rm patches/src680/apply~

make
#Or if you want an audible alert,
#~/make_wrapper.sh
</pre>
