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 svn 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
In case you want to use some libraries your system instead of building them 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 9.10 Karmic Koala and Ubuntu 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 11.04 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.
