Why do you think that it is a parallel build problem? Does it help you to 
reduce build parallelism?

Do you see the same problem with all .jar files or only with the 
LuceneHelpWrapper.jar?

What JDK you are using?

The lucene stuff seems to depend on the expat stuff, 
see /tmp/go-openoffice/trunk/src/ooo-build-3.2.0.9/build/ooo320-m12/lucene/prj/build.lst
Do you use the system expat?

Sigh, I do not like these problems. They are usually hard to debug.


The files are registered by the command regcomp. In the installed system, it 
is in <ooo-home>/ure/bin/regcomp and it is a symlink to startup.sh.

I usually patched the startup.sh, see the attached diff to get strace. The 
strace might show if it found all wanted .jar files, ...

Hmm, I haven't done it for a long time. I think that should patch the 
startup.sh file in 
in /tmp/go-openoffice/trunk/src/ooo-build-3.2.0.9/build/ooo320-m12/solver/320/unxlngx6.pro/bin/ure/startup.sh.

Alternatively, you might add some debug output into 
/tmp/go-openoffice/trunk/src/ooo-build-3.2.0.9/build/ooo320-m12/solenv/bin/modules/installer/servicesfile.pm
into the function register_javacomponents, ...
