split OpenOffice extension

[^thehatsrule^]

fwiw, there is a similar tracker entry: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=98159

Thanks, I'd seen it - 'trouble is, there's no solution yet.

I'll try with gcc-4.4.0 tonight.

[alu]

indeed, go-Office seems nice; i have looked at their servers, and packages seems to be really small, or have i missed smthg

[Juanito]

At first glance, it seems the go-oo download is a front-end for compiling the same 175mb behemoth?

[alu]

mmmhhh google seems to return different results for go-oo, varying from 108mb to 180mb, but indeed, it remains bigger than expected

[bmarkus]

It is an OO variant, do no expect miracles in size.

Hi!

Hope you get it done Juanito. That would really make the day. It would probably turn more eyes from the linuxcommunity towards MC and TC also. So, good luck in your endeavour to make an openoffice extension!

Have fun guys advancing this nice distro,
meo

Not looking good I'm afraid - gcc-4.4.0 gives the same error and the openoffice bug report says gcc-3.x cannot be used to compile openoffice-3.1 either.

'Makes you wonder how they compiled openoffice-3.1 in testing...

Juanito, any related issue with the lack of enable handle exceptions in gcc-4.0 (in opposite to gcc-3.0)?:
(terminate called after throwing an instance of 'CppUnit::StubException')

See topic: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=2360.0

Regards.

(with only 1 Gb of RAM I could not compile gcc-4.X to try)

[Juanito]

It could be related, but the original openoffice bug report was from a system that has no connection with tinycore...

[danniel]

Anyway, It is possible to get a gcc.4.x version with the enable handle exceptions, just for any tries?
It will be much appreciated.

Thanks

[Juanito]

I've compiled gcc with and without "-fno-exceptions" (and "-fno-rtti") with the same results...

Any suggestions would be welcome

Hi guys!

I hope that someone could come up with a solution because openoffice is kind of connected with linux distributions. I think that it is a vital part of a pc-os to have some kind of office solution. If that could be done for MC and TC I think a lot of people in the linux-community would react very positive to that. A good office solution is what many looks for to even consider using a certain distribution. So it would be a very good thing if openoffice could be compiled into an extension for MC and TC.

Have fun extending this incredible distro,
meo

PS I'm very sorry that I can't come up with something constructive regarding OO myself DS
