Thank you Damjan, this is one of the best news about project development
we've had in recent months! And I won't insist again that these news
deserve a blog post...
My work can be found in branches/gbuild-reintegration
I've just built it correctly on one of my environments (Linux64). OK to
merge it from my side, with the aim of ironing out any further issues by
4.2.0. For the record, a parallel build (-P4) worked great too.
* Fixes bugs 117685, 117218, 117340, 116880, 116755, 117350, 117340,
117610, 116959, 117845, 117687, and 117171. Note how at least 116755
is a user-visible bug in OOXML parsing.
This is really impressive. I've taken a look all of them (117340 is
listed twice, I don't know if you wanted to list something else). May I
know why this branch development fixes
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=116880 and
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=116755 ? I mean, you fixed
them "while at it" or are they side effects of the build system changes?
I am actually interested in the opposite situation, i.e., can build
system changes reach so deep within the user experience? Or, in other
words, can they introduce new bugs at a level this deep?
I don't get why
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=117171
is addressed too.
I don't have the ability to test Mac OS and it would be appreciated if
someone could or remote access could be given to me so I can.
You received access to an ASF-owned Mac back in October 2015. That Mac
was then taken over by Infra and transformed in an ASF-wide service to
optimize resources. You can surely get access to it again if it doesn't
work for you. I can reactivate the discussion with Infra, just ask in case.
Can I merge branches/gbuild-reintegration to trunk now?
+1 from me. Marcus' concern about merging trunk into it beforehand was
correct, but the set of unrelated changes is minimal and under control
in any merge strategy.
Regards,
Andrea.
