Just to note, splitting the build is huge pain in the ass with long term maintenance, so unless it will be multiple people working on it like in debian you can forget this approach Overall we managed to build the LO on arm when needed, it just uses quite a bit resources with all parts enabled. Most consuming is building all the vcl bindings (kde/gtk2/gtk3/...). You can try to conditionalize that support. Another huge time consumer is generating the translations, which I would not recommend disabling, but if you are unable to produce the results. When I ran osc build on my arm board (tested cca 6 months ago) I was able to produce the resulting packages. Maybe we are just too hog for qemu build in OBS? HTH Tom
