I have Debian Woody with glib2.2. When trying to install OO1.1.2-4, it stops immediately saying no glib2.3 found. In system requirements page glib 2.2.0 is said to be enoug.
Have you downloaded the OOo files from an OOo site?
Yes, from the finnish native project site (fi.openoffice.org), finnish versions.
I've tested with the downloaded version from http://ftp.stardiv.de/pub/OpenOffice.org/stable/1.1.4/: No problem, OOo 1.1.4 runs fine with glibc 2.2.5. This issue depends on the finnish native project. Please ressign to a responsible person in this projekt.
Hello arziman, please proceed and decide if this issue is valid (-> NEW) or invalid (-> Invalid -> close). Thanks, Max
This issue is invalid/cannot be solved by modifying OOo itself. -> reassigning to fi, confirming. They can resolve invalid/worksforme. (but at least the download-page should be updated according to the real requirements of the fi-build http://fi.openoffice.org/lataa.html lists glibc 2.2.0 ) The requirements are those of the build-host. So when OOo is compiled on a "newer" system, it will require a newer version of glibc. There is nothing OOo can do about that, only the builder can either use another build-system or use a "wrapper" to glibc that avoids the dependency. I've never tested such a wrapper myself, but you (fi.ooo) may give apbuild from http://autopackage.org/download-tools.html a try
Ok
