Well, looking at a RHEL-5 box it simply seems that yum-builddep is rather broken on RHEL-5. a) it needs the repo names to include "source", b) it doesn't work anyway unless used with a specific pre-downloaded .src.rpm > Hmm...am I asking this in the wrong place? Well its rather off-topic in one sense if yum-builddep doesn't work for e.g. gedit then its a generic problem and not a LibreOffice related one. > Just wanting to set up the compile environment for LibreOffice on CentOS 5. Sure, so lets put the yum-builddep thing aside then and forget about it, it was only meant to be a short-cut to getting what you need installed. Try this... yum install gcc-c++ ant java-devel junit4 flex bison perl-Archive-Zip gtk2-devel freetype-devel gstreamer-devel autoconf and see if that works, I've added that to the wiki at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_build for RHEL-5/CentOS-5, if its not sufficient then let me know what errors you get about missing stuff and we'll just append to the list until it is sufficient :-) C. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
