Hi, according to http://porting.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=mac&msgNo=702 please implement --enable-universal configure argument --help output: --enable-universal Build universal binaries on Mac OS X instead of native binaries. if --enable-universal is used, set the variable UNIVERSAL_BINARIES to "yes".
Rene: I would be glad if you could help me with this stuff.

Reassign to macport. Do we want this at all?
Yes! Universal Binaries will make the life of plain old users easier, and give ooo greater acceptance.
+1 for universal I can take this over if no one else wants it. I would also like to see the ability to make all three possibilities in one go - universal, ppc, and intel. I have both architectures and I do see some benefit in the single architecture build. Is anyone else interested in this?
I was interested. But I think it doesn't make sense for OOo. My patches are at http://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/build/Patches/SRC680/ Files starting with UB-* Feel free to use them.
@Michael I already played with them: it builds, but there are still issues ( OpenOffice.org won't launch ) and maybe use system stl could help. I didn't investigate further, but if you are interested, I can give you some hints.
this is obsolete, no?
wontfix -> closed
