Vanilla up-stream

See the tools project for build guides for various platforms.

You might be interested particulary in the Get the source code (for Linux, but it is quite similar for all the platforms). Also this page might be interesting for you, though it is a little old.

ooo-build

There are loads of versions of OO.o, and several choices of branch, with multiple outstanding patch sets. I recommend you build from up-stream CVS HEAD milestones (SRC680 milestones), with patch sets to make them easier to build from [1]

The very latest ooo-build (a small ~1.5Mb build wrapper) can be got from CVS thus:

export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
cvs login
cvs -z3 checkout -P ooo-build

Note: You are going to need to download an additional ~150Mb of compressed source, and have ~3Gb of space to unpack and build it in.
