Description Olaf Hering 2005-09-05 09:35:52 UTC

OOo relies on java.
Unfortunately, java is not portable, not across platforms and not across
different kernel versions.

allow OOo to build only on 2.6.5 kernels for ppc.

Comment 1 M Nagashree 2005-09-09 07:06:10 UTC

Hi Pert, can you look into this and reassign it to the concerned person, Thankyou.

Comment 2 Petr Mladek 2005-09-09 09:28:09 UTC

Olaf, I could look at it. Is there any good ppc machine where I could test the
build?

Comment 3 Olaf Hering 2005-09-09 09:56:27 UTC

it will fail early on xiqua (2.6.13) but succeed on tangelo (2.6.5).

Comment 4 Petr Mladek 2005-10-27 11:16:42 UTC

I have temporary disabled the java for ppc. The most annoying consequence is that the OOo help is not build. I'll try to find  a better solution later.

Comment 5 Olaf Hering 2005-10-27 13:35:10 UTC

might be related to bug #115562

Comment 6 Matthias Fruehauf 2005-11-29 10:39:53 UTC

What is the status here?

Comment 7 Petr Mladek 2005-11-29 10:56:55 UTC

No news. I am still busy to make it compile with gcc-4.1.

Comment 8 Petr Mladek 2006-02-21 14:59:28 UTC

Kendy worked on it as part of the 64-bit port. The gcj/hij support is still a bit experimental. It should be better than the current state, though. Even the helpcontent should be built. It should fix also the bug #151417.

I just started a test build with gcj/gij enabled on pokeberry.suse.de.

Comment 9 Petr Mladek 2006-03-10 15:57:07 UTC

Ufff, I have finally built OOo on ppc using gcj. I have enabled it in the package, so it should provide the helpcontent and some other stuff on SL 10.1-beta8.

=> FIXED
