Hello here,

I'm trying to build the french port of openoffice on 5.0-Release, and I would 
like if I could be on any help regarding your project?

For information about encountered problems, you'll find below some exchange 
with Martin Blapp.

Upgrading to 5.X... Is that the branch Current? (new to BSD, as I said...)
I would prefer to avoid upgrading to current, if possible, but I suppose I 
could if strongly required fort that port, which I need (mandatory to achieve 
the migration of my working environment from an ugly WIndowsXP to FreeBSD...)
Anyway, I guess it would be nicer for community to get this port working on 
Release...?

Hello,

I come to you with a problem encountered with the installation of FreeBSD port 
"fr-openoffice-1.0.2".
I run make without any argument, prefering to keep the defaults on everything.
Building has properly achieved, but the "make install" just starts with 
"Intitializing installation program......", seems to copy binary  
installation files to /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.0, and then stops here 
without completing the port installation process (don't return to prompt, but 
just stays uncompleted. ps -aux reports no activity).
I did'nt found the problem mentionned on the Internet. Should I force the port 
registration, and then goes on with install-user? (I tried it, but the 
installation program complains about a missing "setup.ins". I guess I could 
use the one located in 
/usr/ports/french/openoffice/work/oo_1.0.2_src/instsetoo/unxfbsd.pro/33/normal/setup.ins. 
Anyway, the main Makefile contains post-installation operations that I 
would'nt like to bypass.
What's your opinion about it?

Another question: I saw that openoffice required the build of some version of 
mozilla that is older than the one I freshly built from port (1.2.1): will 
some shared library of mozilla 1.2.1 be overwritten by the openoffice 
installation? If this was the case, would it be safe to make reinstall 
mozilla 1.2.1 to restore the latests libs without compromizing openoffice?

By the way, since the building of that port required a lots of disk space, 
dependences and patience, I wondered if I should made my build available as a 
package for some other french users? (I'm relatively new to FreeBSD, and I do 
not know exactly if this could be a good idea, but I'm suggesting it just in 
case... What do you think?)

Please do not hesitate to ask for any further information.

And last but not least, thanks a lot for your work on that huge port!
