--- Comment #4 from Davin McCall <[email protected]> 2012-07-23 15:36:23 PDT --- Frankly, I'd be worried that I'd be spreading misinformation. I eventually stumbled through a process that seemed to build a working libreoffice but so much of it is voodoo, I don't know why it works. I downgraded gcc for example but I'm not sure if that was really necessary or not and I'm hesitant to recommend it to anyone else. I used a certain combination of configure options and I'm not sure which were really necessary (nor even what effect they all have). Main questions are: what's the deal with the different tarballs (-binfilter, -core, -dictionaries etc)? - which ones do I need? I seemed to manage just by downloading the -core, but I don't understand if that means I'm missing out on something. The build docs you linked to don't talk about building from source tarballs at all. If I download tars other than -core, do I need to build them separately or can I do something else to get them included in the build process? Also: what do the various configure options *really* do? I mean if I --disable-mozilla for instance, what functionality does that affect? I'd happily contribute to the wiki but I just don't have the answers. Your suggestion is, to be frank, a bit patronizing. Regardless, there are some real bugs evident in the build process, as documented in comments above. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
