After successfully moving from 6.4 to 8.0 by doing a clean install I've embarked on the task of rebuilding OpenOffice from ports :-( I'm getting a confusing error in the config stage: ------------------------------------------------------------ ===> Configuring for en-openoffice.org-GB-3.1.1 <snip> checking for gperf... /backup/tmp/ports/work/usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-3/work/OOO310_m19/solenv/bin/gperf checking gperf version... /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libstdc++.so.5" not found, required by "gperf" test: : bad number configure: error: too old, you need at least 3.0.0 ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. ------------------------------------------------------------ True enough I don't have a native libstdc++.so.5 . /usr/local/lib/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd6.4/3.4.6/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/local/lib/compat/libstdc++.so.4 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7 /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.10 The only similar problem I could find on Google was a post to the freebsd-ports list 2 years ago where someone had a problem with a pre-built package of OpenOffice except that it required libstdc++.so.6 and he had libstdc++.so.5. So I'm puzzled why now, 2 years later, OpenOffice needs an older version of libstdc++.so. As an experiment I added a link for libstdc++.so.5 in /usr/lib and this stopped the message about libstdc++.so.5 but produced a new one about libm.so.4 not being found, and still complained about gperf being too old. I've now put this task on the back burner while I ask for advice here instead of digging an even deeper hole for myself. I assume that "at least 3.0.0" refers to the version of gperf but I already have gperf-3.0.3. Does this look like a bug or have I done something wrong? -- Mike Clarke
