Regina I don't know why it doesn't build on your machine but I
successfully built the tagged AOO410 branch for the RC on Windows, Mac
and Linuxc 32/64 bit. It was always a clean fresh build to the latest
tagged sources. The src tar balls are gnerated on Mac as I did it always
in the past. The included config scripts for Mac are a mistake and were
probably in all src releases in the past as well (good catch Damjan)
Well I built the src tarball only on Mac because of the lack of time to
do it on the other platforms as well. But again it iis the same source I
used to build the binaries.

Earlier, under limited time, I was unsuccessful in building ApacheOO
from source in this GNU/Linux Debian Unstable environment. I tried
several Java versions, including Zulu from Azul Systems.
On the other hand, simply because I was not able to build it in my
environment, it does not imply that ApacheOO 4.1.2-RC3 is not ready to
become OpenOffice 4.1.2. I installed it into Debian Unstable and it
performs beautifully.

Thank you to whoever built the binary!
[X] +1 Approve RC3 to become ApacheOO 4.1.2

Yes. I remember that for Windows own unpack tool problems have been

Yes. I have now unpacked it inside Cygwin, using "tar xvzf

I have put my comment into section "Source release" right after the
command example on the Wiki page
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7.
I don't know, whether unpacking the zip-source inside Cygwin would work.
As both Jürgen and me could build it with the "tar.gz" source, I agree
with Jürgen, that next time we should not provide a zip-source at all.
Kind regards
Regina

[orcmid]
Regina, can you explain what Windows tool you mean?
Do you mean not using the default way that Windows will open/extract a .zip file?
Do you mean that a Zip utility like WinZip or 7Zip should not be used?
I assume the change you mean is where you use the Cygwin bash session and use tar to unpack the tar.bz2 source. Is that correct?
(Or has the change not been pushed yet?)

good that we figured out why it didn't worked with the zip but it is
strange. We can think about dropping the zip completely. Users have to
use cygwin anyway and probably have the tools in place already. I would
drop the zip src release in the future.

I have use apache-openoffice-4.1.2-r1709696-src.tar.gz now and unzipped
it in Cygwin. That source builds fine then. I have added a note to
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7
not to use Windows tools for unpacking.

checked the build in the morning and en-US built was successful. Besides
the fact that we have some issues on newer Linux distros (we ever had)
the src package is fine.
@Regina, I still have no ideas what the problem is in your env but maybe
you can give one of the tar balls a try instead of the zip.

Regina, I used the tar.gz tarball and started a Windows build,
everything looks good so fr and it is still building. stlport for
example is finished, I don#t remeber what exactly your problems were.
Herbert mentioned that he remembered problems with the zip file and
cygwin and permissions. Well I don't know and as mentioned I used the
tar.gz because it was smaller.
I will let you know when the build is finished.

If it is not my build environment, then it is likely a problem on
Windows, because building in Cygwin is a little bit special. Sadly no
one found the time to try building a src tar ball on Windows. We are not
releasing binaries but source, and as long as nobody does a successful
build of a src tall ball on Windows, I cannot vote +1 in good conscience.
