Yesterday I compiled openoffice.org-2.0.3 on my amd64 box (compilation time 410 min) without any problems. So I think you should first be more tenacious about getting the OO-amd64 to compile before trying the i386 version. Btw if you want I can send you the amd64 package openoffice.org-2.0.3.tbz (110M). Good luck! --=20 Vasil Dimov gro.DSBeerF@dv Testing can show the presence of bugs, but not their absence. -- Edsger W.
