I recently built Apache OpenOffice 4.1.3 RC prior to GA on Debian Sid (bleeding-edge ;-) for AMD64 architecture. I built DEB and RPM packages for Debian (and derivatives like Ubuntu) and RedHat (and derivatives, like CentOS, Oracle Unbreakable Linux, etc), respectively. GCC 6 will not build the OpeonOffice suite; however, GCC 5 will happily build the Apache professional office suite application. The following recent blog entry may provide insight on my procedure: Short link: < https://metztli.it/blog/index.php/aH9?blog=4 > Full link: < https://metztli.it/blog/index.php/build-apache-openoffice-4-1?blog=4 > Best professional Regards. -- Jose R R http://metztli.it --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Try at no charge http://b2evolution.net for http://OpenShift.com PaaS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- from our GitHub http://Nepohualtzintzin.com repository.
