I fail to see, how the build failing with a not supported (and not keyworded) architecture could be a bug. OOo 2.0 does NOT build and work with AMD64 atm. Nothing to add here (In reply to comment #1) > I fail to see, how the build failing with a not supported (and not keyworded) > architecture could be a bug. OOo 2.0 does NOT build and work with AMD64 atm. > Nothing to add here Yes, but there is a binary package and active work is being done to port it to AMD64, so isn't it useful to know about compile errors on that architecture? Especially since these two patches are specifically for the AMD64 platform? According to the upstream developers the AMD64-port will take at least another 6 months to be finished, so it is rather useless to correct temporary trivial bugs in the build system of an hard masked RC2. If you want to help with AMD64-porting please report bugs upstream, in this case, this is a "problem" in ooo-build, so the correct place would be: https://bugzilla.novell.com/index.cgi Though most likely this will already have been fixed by the corresponding developers (as they are working with ooo-build), so it is a little bit useless. Alright, thanks for clearing that up. Also, I didn't realize how relatively ancient the native x86_64 binary builds are. |
