Re[2]: Building LO from source
Thank you everyone, Sorry for the spam e-mails. I'm trying to get a hold of this. As you suggested, I installed a new CentOS.

I was able to install all dependencies under Ubuntu. BTW, this is the autogen.sh command I want to use.

It is *very* different from the way TDF packages LibreOffice in the .deb format. How can I exclude some of the apps such as "Draw"? Draw (and Writer, Calc, etc) are not "apps" as such IMHO but different kinds of documents that the one same app, LibreOffice, manages using the same soffice.bin process. But that is just terminology, we know what you mean. > Is it possible that > each app has its own DEB installation file so that I won't be installing > it if I skip its DEB file? That *is* exactly how the real Debian packages for LibreOffice are structured. See https://packages.debian.org/buster/libreoffice Also many (most?) other Linux distros, like Fedora for instance, split LibreOffice into multiple packages, like libreoffice-core, libreoffice-writer, libreoffice-calc, libreoffice-draw, etc. (As such, I don't think that it makes sense to split up LibreOffice like that, I find it fairly pointless, old-fashioned and needlessly complex, but then I am not a Linux zealot, I like macOS more. But just ignore me here.) --tml ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
Re[2]: Building LO from source
Thanks Setphan, I think it's best to recompile the source from scratch with official DEB packaging system. How can I exclude some of the apps such as "Draw"? Is it possible that each app has its own DEB installation file so that I won't be installing it if I skip its DEB file? Or, is there a parameter for excluding apps?

Hi Michael, Thanks for writing back. I noticed that option after I compiled the source. I was looking a way to create a .deb file, and checkinstall was the option suggested. My problem is, the .deb file works fine on Ubuntu 18.04 and I can install the extension. However, the same .deb file is installed on Debian-10 but I can't install the extension.
