For a list of bugs we have raised against OO 1.0.3 that never made it into the release. These bugs will have patches that can be applied to this release so that it can be built, and run. However, there are some patches that do not have an issue raised against them as they are workarounds and hacks that we cannot raise bugs against.

In any case they are all in the following tarball:
103_patches.tar.gz

Unless you apply all the patches in this tarball, it will be impossible to build/run openoffice on Irix. Good Luck!
