Building Apache OpenOffice

Apache OpenOffice is a big project and depends on several other external libraries.
The list of prerequisites varies for the different platforms.

A comprehensive and complete building guide can be found in the Project Wiki.

With having all prerequisites in place you can simply run

cd aoo/main
autoconf
./configure <configure_switches>
./bootstrap
source *.Set.sh
cd instsetoo_native
build --all

Note that building OpenOffice can take several hours.

The default build will produce a setup version (e.g. setup program on Windows, dmg on macOS, rpm and deb packages on Linux) and an archived version.
The output can be found in the directory in instsetoo_native/<output_dir>/Apache_OpenOffice/...
