Personally, I'd strongly prefer a future where we built only with free compilers on Mac/cross-compile-to-windows/Linux and other places. > Following files have been created by autogen up to the error. > I include config.log for your information.

Having said all that, personally I'd concentrate on getting 3.4.x building if you're desperate for a stable version, 3.4.2 will be out in a month, freeze in 2 weeks and can have your fixes in it by then; but I'd go for building on master and back-porting those myself :-) HTH, Michael. -- michael.me...@novell.com <><, Pseudo Engineer, itinerant idiot _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
