Compared with up-stream OO.o, it has better Microsoft binary +file support (with eg. fields support), and it will import WordPerfect +graphics beautifully. If you are reliant on Excel VBA macros - then Go-oo +offers the best macro fidelity too. If you expect your spreadsheets to +calculate compatibly, or you get embedded Visio diagrams in your documents, +you'll want Go-oo. + +NOTE: This build needs about 12 GB in $TMP and the source is about 430 MB +to download. It also takes hours to compile. This build is still a "work +in progress" - due to the long build time, it is very hard to QA test. + +NOTE2: Don't forget to source /etc/profile if you just installed jdk. In fact, +it is a good idea to do this after you use su and before you run any SlackBuild. + +This requires xulrunner, Archive-Zip, icu4c, apache-ant, and jdk from /extra in +Slackware. + +Optional requirements are avahi, openclipart, ORBit2, GConf, and gnome-vfs. + +Variables that can be passed to the SlackBuild script: +ARTPATH Path to openclipart; leave unset to disable. +NVIDIA=no Turns off an nvidia build work around. +LINGUAS_OOO Sets the languages to add. +PLUGIN=no Disable openoffice's mozilla plugin. +KDE=no Disable KDE4 UI. +GTK=no Disable GTK UI. +GNOME=yes Enables optional gnome bits. +MYCONF Used to pass extra configure options. |
