[Libreoffice] Fw from tdf-discuss: Howto start building from tarball for Solaris x86

Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me with my libreoffice build from 
source problem. Meanwhile I did two trials, one on solaris and one on 
suse 11.4.

Both failed at the point where the real source is required to "make" 
libreoffice.
The automatic fetch from the web seems not to work since there are some 
web servers missing.
There is no hint how to spreadout the tarball of source code so that it 
is recognized by the configre and make.
So the bootstrap procedure foreseen in the bootstrap package seems to be 
broken.

Below you can find some details about my failed trials.

Any advice  would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Karl
