Priority: medium
Bug ID: 64911
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Check strict version of bundled libs when building
against external copies in ./configure
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
Our bundled libs, which come with an external copy (e.g. liborcus, libwp*) are
wildly untested when not build with the same version as the bundled copy, see
for example:
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Fwd-libreoffice-liborcus-build-problem-td4056820.html
./configure should strictly check the versions that a LibreOffice release will
work with. IMHO it is better to be too strict than too liberal (that is
accepting external versions that accidentally work), as everything else results
is huge additional workload for the QA.
So for example liborcus should be checked to be libocrus-0.4 for LibreOffice
4.0.x and libocrus-0.6 for LibreOffice 4.1.x/master.
