Caolan,
Not meaning to nag, but after quite a few updates in early Feb, there doesn't seem to have been a new release of OOo2 to test since Feb 11.
Any chance of a heads up?

It's because I can't build the help documentation with gcj4 at the moment, see... https://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=147968
On the bright side, I've gotten the seperate language pack rpms working with an older gcj4 on my own machine, so for 2.0 e.g. german language support can be installed seperately from spanish etc etc. Should only be a day or so before the next gcc4 update and thus hopefully the next 1.9.X tests.

gcj4 is now working fine for me again, so we can progress.
those language pack rpms I spoke of are available for 1.9.77. See http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/openoffice.org2/ Kind of big I admit.
i386 build with all languages is approx 10 hours Run started Thu Feb 24 03:27:56 2005 Run finished Thu Feb 24 13:15:32 2005 ppc build with the same start time is still not finished.

great!

Mmmm, but much better than the 100M + download of yore ;-]
Any chance of getting this supplied as a yum repo? (even if it has to be manually added). This would make it a lot easier to keep up-to-date (instead of having to download each package and install).
I'm not sure what's involved in setting up a yum repo, but I thought it was supposed to be pretty simple, which is why I'm asking

Caolan,
Great to see a new version of OOo2 up for testing.
http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/openoffice.org2/i386/
Also, lovely to see that the menu items are now in the menus (making it much easier to launch)
Is this version roughly equivalent to OOo2-BETA1?

A couple of issues that have popped up. I'll mention them here and someone can tell me where to file the bug reports:
In Impress, I'm able to crash it consistently be selecting options in the initial startup:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Impress (Applications > Office > OpenOffice.org 1.9 Impress) 2. In Step 1, click Next >> 3. In step 2, click Next >> 4. In the speed field, select a different speed. 5. In the speed field, select another different speed.
This last step crashed Impress for me.
Step 4 can be replaced with selecting from a different 'selector' first (For example, transistion type).
In Base, I can't seem to move beyond the Save File screen.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Base (Applications > Office > OpenOffice.org 1.9 Base) 2. Select 'Create a new database' and click Next 3. Click Finish. This will prompted for a filename to save the database as. 4. Enter a name in the 'Name' field (or take the default) and click Save.
The dialog disappears, but Base doesn't do anything. If you click Finish again it just prompts to save the file again, over and over. Cancel just closes Base.
Anyone else seeing this, and if so, where should I report this stiff.
Caolan, what can I do to provide you with more feedback on this?
Packages installed are as follows:
[rodd@trevally ~]$ rpm -qa | grep openoffice.org2 openoffice.org2-graphicfilter-1.9.80-3 openoffice.org2-core-1.9.80-3 openoffice.org2-impress-1.9.80-3 openoffice.org2-xsltfilter-1.9.80-3 openoffice.org2-writer-1.9.80-3 [rodd@trevally ~]$

I can confirm the base problem. I was using FC3, are you using development or FC3?
When I tried the rpms that are directly from openoffice.org that are contained within the .gz file which they provide, base worked half way decent. I had to install jre, which did not require any additional environment adjustments, etc.
I believe for Fedora, there is really no place to report the bug. The list is probably it for now.

I'll look into this one, probably its something to do with hsqldb which is built with gcj for us rather than with sun java like upstream.

Ah, that's not it. gcj and hsqldb are working fine. It's http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=43245
