           Summary: Optimize download of 3rd party source tarballs
          Severity: enhancement
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: unspecified
         Component: framework
           Product: LibreOffice

We currently download almost all 3rd party source tarballs even when they are
not used.

One solution is to define tarball names as configure variables and define them
only when needed. This approach is already used for some extensions.

Another solution would be to improve the "download" script and support some
simple syntax in the "ooo.lst. module, e.g:

  7376930b0d3f3d77a685d94c4a3acda8-STLport-4.5-0119.tar.gz if @BUILD_STLPORT@
== "yes"


I prefer the second solution because it is handy to have list of all 3rd party
modules in one place "ooo.lst.in" file. In addition, it is easier to update the
version in this short file. Finally, we should touch configure.in only when we
want to change the logic of the checks. It helps with cherry-picking fixes for
different LO releases.
