it was mentioned that a restructuring of the AOO build Guides would be a
good idea.
I am starting this thread as a place where people can discuss ideas of
what this my look like. For reference the current Build Guide is here:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO.
This should be a wide ranging discussion that leads to clearer
instructions to be able to build AOO; especially for new volunteers.

Here are my notes on building AOO 4.2 on Ubuntu 18 LTS 64-bit VM
Started with a minimal desktop install.
Again, If anyone spots unneeded dependencies please let us know.

When I start the office I keep getting this error.
