It shouldn't take *that* long to build OpenOffice.org. I have been building 2.2.1 and 2.3.0rc2 since yesterday on MIPS and SPARC unsuccessfully until now due to bugs but it should take less than 24 hours. It probably makes a big difference that I have actually built Slackware like LFS/Gentoo, that is reasonably optimised to the processor on which it is to run and I have also optimised the compiler. I only have a MIPS processor at 660 MHz and 256 RAM in one box and the other one has 2 UltraSPARC IIs at 400 MHz with 1.5 GB RAM. I should probably get some PPC hardware soon from the likes of Ebay (Marktplaats/Speurders here in NL). Sunil
