This tutorial will assume a stock Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy) system as a starting point.
Contents
Obtaining ooo-build
One may obtain the stable 2.0.2 version of ooo-build via CVS with the following commands:
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
You should then enter the ooo-build directory and run ./autogen.sh --with-distro=Ubuntu. Most likely you'll also want to add the --disable-kde flag (unless you're using 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 autogen.sh, you need:
- automake1.9
- build-essential
- libpam0g-dev
- libpng12-dev
- flex
- bison
- libgtk2.0-dev
- libmono-dev
- [please help populate the rest of this list!]
Failed patches
Some of the patches listed in ooo-build/patches/src680/apply may not apply successfully. You can try to comment them out in the apply 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 ./download completes in place of make.
#!/bin/bash echo "Starting 'make' wrapper..." cd ~/ooo-build make echo "\n\nCompilation finished." mplayer -really-quiet ~/Music/My_Music_File.mp3
Caveats
Don't do something silly like execute udatedb while make is in progress. This will result in locking the filesystem as read-only and cause the build to fail.
