Errors compiling ooo-build

HEAD

With the above patches removed, the build process could commence. This error was obtained after about 3 hours into the build:

Errors after installing j2sdk1.4 along with gjc

With j2sdk1.4 installed (requires enabling multiverse package sources), the above error is eliminated. However, a few hours into the build I got:

Making: ../../unxlngi6.pro/slb/dapp.lib
echo unxlngi6.pro/slo/dinst.o unxlngi6.pro/slo/dbmp.o | xargs -n1 > ../../unxlngi6.pro/slb/dapp.lib

I had disabled gtk (see why) and kde. Apparently someone else had this problem. 11:09, 26 May 2006 (CEST)

dbus-glib-1 library requirement

checking for dbus-glib-1 >= 0.60... Package dbus-glib-1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `dbus-glib-1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'dbus-glib-1' foundconfigure: error: Library requirements (dbus-glib-1 >= 0.60) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

Errors caused by running ubdatedb

ERROR: cannot open /home/kostmo/ooo-build/build/ooc680-m2/connectivity/unxlngi6.pro/inc/com/sun/star/sdbc/XConnection.hdl for writing
dmake:  Error code 99, while making '../../unxlngi6.pro/inc/types_headergen.done'
'---* tg_merge.mk *---'

After the compiler aborts, I find that I can't write anything to the hard drive (e.g. save a text file to the desktop).

Need for Refresh

This was a useful article a year ago, but it is now hopelessly out of date. It would by nice if it was refreshed with a current Ubuntu version and OOo build. TerryE 01:35, 12 August 2007 (CEST)
