No. It is even stupid/pointless to use system hunspell, as nobody will have it installed on Mac. > ? I only ask this because OOo uses the MacOS spellchecker AFAIK and has > done for some while. Any comments ? MacOSX spell checker and hunspell can both be used, so MacOS versions should continue shipping hunspell. But not system one, but the one included in the sources. Similar for the other requirmenets listed: They are just wrong. You need XCode. You don't need extra autoconf, automake or whatever. Only if (and *only*) if you build mozilla from source, you need libIDL, glib2 and gettext in addition (and pkg-config for not having to specify lots of enviornment variables when building those extra deps). so ./configure --prefix=/my/seamonkeydepsdir/ && make && make install for those abovementioned requirements is enough. (and setting PKG_CONFIG=/my/seamonkeydepsdir/bin/pkg-config) After building seamonkey, go to the moz dir, run dmake zip, save the zips from unxmac*pro/zip to a safe place and the next time when building put the zips into moz/zipped and specify --disable-build-mozilla on configure. You can remove /my/seamonkeydepsdir completely. ciao Christian _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
