1. CoinMP cannot be downloaded

No Ubuntu package (or is there?) so it has to be downloaded during
./bootstrap, but it seems the website has been down for a few days
now. This prevents the use of --enable-category-b, but we can proceed
by leaving that option out.

I bumped into this too, last week, but I didn't have time to check and analyze back at the time. It is a bug in the sense that we do not want to depend on third-party sites for a successful build. So when we include an external library we copy it either to our SVN tree in
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/ext_sources/
(rare; licensing concerns apply too, since we prefer to avoid restrictive licensing there)
or to OOO_EXTRAS, a repository controlled by the project.

This is why you see URL1 and URL2 in
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/external_deps.lst?view=markup

There should always be a URL linking to $(OOO_EXTRAS)$(MD5)-$(name) to avoid the situation that just happened.

Note that OOO_EXTRAS changed URL since we were using Google Code but the service was shut down. Trunk has the right URL now.

I opened two issues to clean up stuff on trunk and AOO410 (we have different external libraries):
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126540
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126541

I'll come back to your other (mostly unrelated) issues when this is fixed and when I have an Ubuntu 14.04 system available (I'll try to get a 32-bit one).

Regards,
  Andrea.
