Looks like something in your java / ant-chain is broken. You could try to rebuild ant-core and see if that helps. Also: Do you have xalan installed (you don't need it, just asking) (In reply to comment #1) > Looks like something in your java / ant-chain is broken.

Are you thinking this bug is because of something wrong on my specific system or are you thinking it's a bug with OpenOffice? (In reply to comment #2) > I have recompiled ant-core to no avail.

As the ebuild is in portage for 6 weeks now and you are the first one to report this, it is very likely that it is something on your system. But there is always a slight chance that something really is wrong ;) Most likely there is something wrong in you java / ant-parts.

I'm willing to try recompiling pretty much anything to get this working, so what should I do? I've already recompiled ant-core, any other ideas? I would try to get a newer point release of the jdk. It's very possible that the (INSECURE) jdk you are using has bugs in it's compiler too. The current version is 1.4.2.10.

The current version > is 1.4.2.10. I updated to the latest version of Java and I still got the error. Then I went ahead and unmerged xalan and OpenOffice has successfully been compiling for hours now (it got way past that part where it was first failing). So it seems to me that there is some sort of conflict between xalan and openoffice. I'll change this bug's status appropriately. Could you please try one more thing:
Add
echo "--without-system-xalan" >> ${CONFFILE}
to the Use Flag checks section in the ebuild and see if that helps. Could be that OOo automatically finds the system-xalan and uses this if not explicitely disabled.
Forget what I said before, the current version doesn't even allow to build with system-xalan, so this shouldn't be the problem here...

Can't reproduce this, OOo builds fine even with xalan installed here. So it has to be something special about your java/xalan/ant-core-install I'm closing this, can't reproduce and as long as you are the only one getting this, I'm sure it is something else wrong on your system. Still nothing we can do here, sorry... |
