Firefox isn't _that_ heavy, only 21 SBU on my latest build (although I did use -j6 to stop it falling back to mostly one core on this ryzen: past experience showed that here -j6 is actually a little faster than -j5 or -j4). But still not sure if that problem only applies to my sample of 1 ryzens, certainly on intel it seems to use all cores by default. But I'll accept that rustc in its dependencies is a heavy build - but you need it anyway for librsvg. The patches for libreoffice are now in patches/ and should apply to the newer version. And yes, for my "soemwhat full" build of libreoffice (all likely european languages and dictionaries, except for Valencian catalan (when I last looked, only ubuntu had that as an available locale in its patched glibc) I hit 69 SBU so definitely heavy, although the book's much smaller build should be soemwhat lighter. Anyway, please report if there is any more breakage from poppler. ĸen -- If a man stands before a mirror and sees in it his reflection, what he sees is not a true reproduction, but a picture of himself when he was a younger man. -- de Selby -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
