that is a very good point (and i completely forgot about it): on the only platform where we still need moz, we can't actually build it from source except with an additional old MSVC installed. i agree that in this special case it's best to just unzip the pre-built binaries; there apparently hasn't been a need to re-build these in a long time if the "06-Sep-2011" timestamp on the server is reliable. let's hope that the binaries will continue to work until the remaining address books are re-implemented. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
