To get and build Apache OpenOffice you need some packages. You can get them with:

=== First trial ===
+
If you want to use the system provided libraries instead of building them for yourself you should get their development packages by running:
−
 
+
−
You don't have to install all necessary packages at once, you can go through trial and error to gain more knowledge about the Ubuntu packaging:
+
  
 
<pre>
 
<pre>
−
./configure
+
sudo apt-get install python-dev ccache libgraphite-dev \
 +
libwpd-dev libxslt-dev libhunspell-dev libaltlinuxhyph-dev
 
</pre>
 
</pre>
  
−
Configure without any parameters gives you some errors probably. You can disable some parts, e.g. --disable-mozilla.
+
The java package depends on your Ubuntu version:
−
If configure requests for a file you can use the [http://packages.ubuntu.com/ Ubuntu package content search] to get to know which
+
−
package provides such file.
+
  
−
=== With Mozilla ===
+
For Ubuntu 9.10 ("Karmic Koala") and 10.04 ("Lucid Lynx") you must activate the "ubuntu lucid partner" archive in the software sources and run
−
 
+
−
The commandline to configure is also a bit different, e.g.
+
 
<pre>
 
<pre>
−
./configure --with-distro=UbuntuHardy --with-system-mozilla=xulrunner
+
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
 
</pre>
 
</pre>
−
The --with-system-mozilla=xulrunner option seems to fix the configure error
 
−
<pre>
 
−
checking for libxul-xpcom ... Package libxul-xpcom was not found in the pkg-config search path.
 
−
</pre>
 
−
This may be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/openoffice.org-l10n/+bug/194551
 
  
−
=== Patches ===
+
For Ubuntu 11.04 and up please run
−
 
+
−
Recent developer builds may need additional patches to build properly. You should have a look at the Subversion repository at
+
 
<pre>
 
<pre>
−
svn://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/patches/buildbot
+
sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
 
</pre>
 
</pre>
  
−
where patches of the OOo Buildbots can be found.
+
To make sure that all packages are installed you could just simply run command:
−
 
+
−
== Build using ooo-build on Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy ==
+
−
 
+
−
<font color="red">The instructions below are outdated and need a refresh!</font>
+
−
 
+
−
This tutorial will assume a stock [http://www.ubuntu.com/download Ubuntu] 5.10 (Breezy) system as a starting point.
+
−
(See below for Hardy instructions.)
+
−
 
+
−
===Obtaining ooo-build===
+
−
One may obtain the stable 2.0.2 version of <code>ooo-build</code> via CVS with the following commands:
+
 
<pre>
 
<pre>
−
export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
+
sudo apt-get build-dep openoffice.org
−
cvs login
+
−
cvs -z3 checkout -P ooo-build
+
−
cvs update -Pd -r ooo-build-2-0-2
+
 
</pre>
 
</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===
+
== Testing the Prerequisites ==
−
Packages may be obtained as follows:
+
  
−
  sudo apt-get install ''package_name [additional_package(s)]''
+
First download the source code:
−
 
+
−
Alternatively, you may use the Synaptic Package Manager to install missing packages.
+
−
 
+
−
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 (on 7.10/gutsy: libcurl4-gnutls-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)
+
−
*libxul-dev (if --with-firefox used)
+
−
*libgstreamer0.10-dev
+
−
*libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
+
−
*gperf
+
−
*libxslt1-dev
+
−
 
+
−
Far into the ''main build commencing'' section, you'll realize you need these:
+
−
 
+
−
*libbonobo2-dev
+
−
*libxaw7-dev
+
−
 
+
−
===Necessary ./configure Flags===
+
−
*'''--disable-gtk''' &mdash; 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>
 
<pre>
−
#!/bin/bash
+
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk aoo
−
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>
 
</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>.
+
Then the configure step will help you to find out if all is there:
−
 
+
−
===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.

#!/bin/bash

Preparing to build Apache OpenOffice on Ubuntu

To get and build Apache OpenOffice you need some packages. You can get them with: 

sudo apt-get install subversion g++ gcc bison flex libarchive-zip-perl libcups2-dev libpam0g-dev \
gperf libfreetype6-dev libxaw7-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxrandr-dev patch \
libgconf2-dev libgnomevfs2-dev ant libgtk2.0-dev junit junit4 libidl-dev liborbit2-dev

If you want to use the system provided libraries instead of building them for yourself you should get their development packages by running: 

sudo apt-get install python-dev ccache libgraphite-dev \
libwpd-dev libxslt-dev libhunspell-dev libaltlinuxhyph-dev

The java package depends on your Ubuntu version:

For Ubuntu 9.10 ("Karmic Koala") and 10.04 ("Lucid Lynx") you must activate the "ubuntu lucid partner" archive in the software sources and run 

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

For Ubuntu 11.04 and up please run 

sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk

To make sure that all packages are installed you could just simply run command: 

sudo apt-get build-dep openoffice.org

Testing the Prerequisites

First download the source code: 

svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk aoo

Then the configure step will help you to find out if all is there: 

cd aoo/main
autoconf
./configure --disable-mozilla --with-junit="/usr/share/java/junit4.jar"

For other options regarding mozilla code please see here.

Building Apache OpenOffice

Now that the Ubuntu specific prerequisites are met please follow the general Building Guide to continue. You might find the page Debug Build Problems interesting too.
