OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is AvailableOpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is AvailablePosted Jun 30, 2006 18:36 UTC (Fri) by yodermk (subscriber, #3803)Parent article: OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is Available
General OOo status questions ...
1. Does it work natively on 64 bit systems yet? Last I heard, it still wasn't quite ready as of 2.0.0.
2. Does it compile cleanly with GCC 4.1.x yet? Last I heard, it did not.
3. Have they started development on a 2.1?

OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is Available Posted Jun 30, 2006 19:02 UTC (Fri) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] I have gentoo system with gcc 4.1.1 and OOo 2.0.2 - works Ok, so far (no huge patches to make it happen - just 2Kb patch to fix some path issues). I'd be surprised if 2.0.3 lost this ability. As for 64bit cleannes - that's good question: there are patches to compile it for x86-64 - but then it stops compiling for IA32 !

OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is Available Posted Jul 1, 2006 0:27 UTC (Sat) by pzb (subscriber, #656) [Link] The ooo-build project has support for VBA in OOo 2.0.x. I don't think it has been merged into 2.0 upstream.

1. I _think_ it now either works with 2.0.3, or is finally able to be done properly during the next few months (ie. Fedora Core 6, Ubuntu 6.10 should include native 64-bit OOo).
2. Yes, it should according to some mailist list messages.
3. AFAIK the branch is not yet open, but planning is probably on the way in some fashion. It's going to be 3.0 however, it seems, with planned availability somewhere around 2007/2008.
OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 Is Available Posted Jun 30, 2006 20:13 UTC (Fri) by proski (subscriber, #104) [Link] Native OpenOffice.org for x86_64 has been in Fedora Development for a while. Try this:yum -y --enablerepo=development install openoffice.org-writer.x86_64Many thanks to OpenOfiice.org and Red Hat developers for making it possible. Special thanks to Caolan McNamara.
