Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 121117
using the system libwpd doesn't attempt to build writerperfect
Last modified: 2012-10-01 15:42:12 UTC
The internal libwpd was removed as part of the IP clearance process. The idea was not to lose completely the functionality and since writerperfect is under the ALv2 still permit builders to use a pre-packaged libwpd. Unfortunately using the "system" libwpd doesn't work as the build process will never gets to writerfilter: ============= Building module postprocess ============= Entering /usr/ports/editors/openoffice-3-devel/work/ooo/main/postprocess/checkxml Entering /usr/ports/editors/openoffice-3-devel/work/ooo/main/postprocess/packcomponents /usr/bin/perl checkxml.pl Checking:/usr/ports/editors/openoffice-3-devel/work/ooo/main/solver/350/unxfbsdx.pro/xml/ ok.

Looking at r1201697 it's clear that libwpd was removed as a requirement from writerfilter and sw.
