Alright, thanks for the reply. So, I tried to install the dependencies, but I ran into some problems. There were requests all over the place to change the architecture for lots of software from x86-64 to normal. should I go through with all of these changes, or did I do something wrong?<br>

Hi Jerry,<br>
<br>
First - welcome to LibreOffice :-) most of these questions are best<br>
asked on IRC, but lets archive some of the answers here.<br>

</div> That basically means - it has already fetched everything :-) that is a<br>
good sign.<br>

</div> Oooh - old software on new hardware - fun :-)<br>

</div> Ah - it is probable that you need the main OSS repositories enabled; at<br>
least - I believe we had the split build in 11.2 (which bootstrap is<br>
from). Perhaps it is better to add the repository here:<br>
<br>
sudo zypper ar <a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_11.2/" target="_blank">http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_11.2/</a> lo-unstable<br>
<br>
And then do the zypper si -d command (you could also install RC1<br>
pre-built to have a play).<br>

<br>
</div> Nurgh; still. I suspect this is some dependency problem that we need to<br>
check more carefully in configure. Petr - have you seen this before ?<br>

</div> In general, if you hack pieces out of the build blindly, you will<br>
eventually cause far more trouble than you solve :-) it is usually<br>
better to try to trouble-shoot why it is not working in the first<br>
instance, as every problem may have a root issue that causes many other<br>
problems in turn.<br>

<br>
</div> Wow :-) that's more fun indeed; again - Petr may be able to help, you<br>
really need all the dependencies installed right (hopefully the above<br>
helps).<br>
<br>
All the best !<br>
