[Open Office] Re: Fw: SIL OpenOffice.org

[David Fraser]

Hi all

I've started looking at integrating the sil graphite patch into ooo-build

This is just for interest, I've stripped the actual patch and logfile 
but they're at http://davidf.sjsoft.com/files/ooo-build/

For more information on the project, see:
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=OOo_20_graphite
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=OOo_20_source

Tim Eves is the maintainer and he's wanting to get this into OOo CVS so 
I suggested using ooo-build

There's currently a problem with gcc4 and sil graphite though

Cheers
David

Right, ooo-build usually has a mechanism for downloading the 'upstream'
version of an included project rather than having to put the binary into
CVS in the form of a patch, so it would help if there was some URL from
which the tarball could be downloaded. I've put it on my own website
temporarily or it could be put on the go-oo website, but it might be
simpler to just push it into the sourceforge file release system.

OK great, thanks for the info

I've just done the neccessary work to integrate the patch into
ooo-build, and tested that it applies the patch etc fine on the old
ooo-build-2-0 branch.
Unfortunately it gives me an internal compiler error compiling the
silgraphite project, I've attached the log file.
This is in Fedora Core 4 with the following gcc:
gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20051125 (Red Hat 4.0.2-8)

I've also attached the patch to ooo-build-2-0 and the slightly modified
form of your patch (paths adjusted, without tarball)
We'll need to test that it builds on HEAD / ooo-build-2-0-1 next before
adding it (rather add experimental stuff on HEAD)

Cheers
David
