Hello, we can't look only for 32 bit vs 64 bit versions for Linux.
We must also look for Java version 8 vs Java version 11. So at this point we should start with a plttform which also support java 8 So this should discuss after releasing AOO version 4.1.8 I will give my Vote after evaluating these points. I'm against Ubuntu version 14.04. Kind regards Mechtilde Am 10.11.20 um 20:37 schrieb Marcus: > Am 10.11.20 um 19:23 schrieb Marcus: >> Am 10.11.20 um 18:58 schrieb Jim Jagielski: >>> History: For previous AOO releases (up to 4.1.8), we have used >>> CentOS5 as our build environ for our community builds. >>> As of 4.2.x, this is no longer an option.
