+OpenOffice.org Build 644 Beta Personal Install How-To
Written by: Martin Blapp <mbr@freebsd.org>
-OpenOffice.org will soon been installed in
-${PREFIX}/OpenOffice.org-643/
-
-Warning:
---------
-
-This port is experimental. Do not use it for production.
-
+OpenOffice.org 1.1Beta will soon been installed in
+${PREFIX}/OpenOffice.org-644
1 User installation
-------------------
-1.1 OO.org installed from the ports collection
-
-Once this is done you have to run "make install-user" as the
-user you like to use OO.org and choose a standard workstation
-installation.
-
-1.2 OO.org installed as package
-
-First check if procfs is running. OO.org setup does depend on
-procfs and does crash without it. This dependency will be
-removed in future, but at the moment it is needed.
-Please read the procfs(5) manpage and ensure the the following
-line is in /etc/fstab:
-
-proc /proc procfs rw 0 0
-
-If you have just installed OO.org as package, there is no
-"make install-user" option available. Instead you'll have
-to run as the user you like to use OO.org:
-
-"${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice-setup" and choose a standard workstation
-installation.
-
-2 JDK-Installation
-------------------
-
-If OO.org asks you to choose the Java JDK during
-"make install-user", you must choose the linux jdk1.3.1.
-Native FreeBSD jdk1.3.1 does not work yet with FreeBSD
-OO.org does ignore it.
-
-3 Start OO.org
+Just type "openoffice" after you have successfully
+installed the package. If there is no installed
+OO.org dir in hour homedir, you'll be prompted to
+install some files and choose a installed JDK.
+The setup installs a "OpenOffice.org1.1Beta" folder
+in your homedir.
+
+If the setup tells you there is already an installed
+version, you may look at the file ".sversionrc" in
+your homedir. In this file OpenOffice and StarOffice
+have both a line for each version which is installed.
+After removing the problematic line you should be able to
+install again.
+
+2 Start OO.org
--------------
There are some wrappers installed for fast startup.
Add "${PREFIX}/bin/" to your PATH and you will be able
to use them.

-${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice-sagenda
-${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice-scalc
-${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice-sdraw

-4 Setup problems
-----------------
+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1
+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1-sagenda
+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1-scalc

+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1-spadmin
+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1-sweb
+${PREFIX}/bin/openoffice_1.1-swriter
+
+OO.org does need $LANG to be set to a suitable value.
+If it is not already set, a default value is chosen.
+Some old X-Servers before XFree86 4.2 do not like the
+western locale with Euro symbol (ISO_8859-15).
+You should ignore the warning message then or upgrade to
+to a more recent X-server.
+
+If you have chosen US-ASCII as locale, you cannot load
+and save documents with special characters and these
+characters are also not available in swriter and scalc.
+
+3 Setup problems (FreeBSD < 4.7-RELEASE only)
+---------------------------------------------
If the setup complains about a missing file "setup.ins",
-it's time to upgrade your FreeBSD system to the lastest
+it's time to upgrade your FreeBSD system to the latest
version. You will encounter this bug only if your OS is
-older than FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE. 4.6-RELEASE and
-4.6.2-RELEASE are still affected.
+older than FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE.
+
+4 Crashes in URL-location bar (FreeBSD < 4.7-RELEASE only)
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+OO.org can crash if you enter a non existing path
+or URL in the location bar. To fix these crashes
+you need the following patch. You will see this
+bug only if your OS is older than FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE.

+
+5 Crash at startup after using a localized version
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+If you had installed the english version, and then have
+switched to a localized OO.org, it will crash instantly.
+
+To solve this issue, please remove the already installed
+OpenOffice.org1.1Beta dir in your homedir and remove the
+appropriate entry from ".sversionrc". After you have done
+this, redo the user installation and the problem will
+go away.
