The release notes for the latest version of LibreOffice (24.2) state that

"The minimum requirements for building and running LibreOffice on Linux
have been raised from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7/CentOS 7 to Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 8/CentOS 8 (or equivalent)".


Since Red Hat/CentOS 8 does not have a 32-bit edition, I wonder if my
problems compiling for 32-bit are due to a possible lack of support.

I have been compiling LibreOffice for Linux 32-bit since the Foundation
stopped releasing 32-bit binaries. I have been able to solve problems,
sometimes on my own, sometimes with the generous help of people on this
very mailing list.

But now I'm stuck.

I am using Debian 12 Bookworm 32-bit as my OS base. I downloaded all the
dependencies asked for on the BuildingOnLinux Foundation wiki.

Since trying to compile 24.2 with a simple 'make' treats all warnings as
errors, I tried using


make CFLAGS="-Wno-error" CXXFLAGS="-Wno-error"


But this approach only resulted in some non-compileable modules.

I was finally able to compile most of them using


make -Wall -Wno-restrict


But it stops at one of the last stages with this message:


"/usr/bin/ld: Error: /tmp/ccDBatVc.ltrans0.ltrans.o(.data.rel.ro) is too
big (0x3ef58 bytes)

/usr/bin/ld: Could not set dynamic section sizes: memory exhausted

collect2: Error: ld returned 1 exit state

make[1]: ***
[/home/linux/Downloads/libreoffice-24.2.0.3/Library_merged.mk:11:
/home/linux/Downloads/libreoffice-24.2.0.3/instdir/program/libmergedlo.so]
Error"


Since I have allocated 12 GB of RAM in the virtual machine, I don't know
why the memory is exhausted.

Guys, have any idea what's going on?

P.S. I get the same error message when I run 'make' alone.
