Hi Rene I just built all modules of OOB680_m5 upstream sources using debian/unstable versions of gcc-4.0, gcj-4.0, java-gcj-compat and ant on a sunblade 100 with 256mb ram.
The configure flags used were --enable-build-mozilla --with-ant-home=/usr The details are here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/GNULinuxSparcPorting#Building_with_debian.2Funstable_gcc4.0.2Fgcj Briefly, two issues that might be sparc related were: (a) disabled compiling gcc shared libs from jars (javacache). (b) ignored errors pre-registering java components Issue (a) might be fixed with more ram. There is a fix for (b) that works with gcc4.1 but for not gcc-4.0 javacache makes a series of assembler files in /tmp which are appended to one large assembler file in /tmp approx 10x the size of the corresponding jar, this process needs about 1gb ram+swap and is very slow. jim [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
