[blfs-support] libreoffice-4.2.2, java, jdbc and postgresql questions
Greetings, I have never used LibreOffice ( I m still stuck wiht an old BLFS build with openoffice-3.something ) I am about to upgrade to libreoffice-4.2.2 ( http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/xsoft/libreoffice.html ) I noticed the above blfs recipe has these switches --disable-postgresql-sdbc \ --without-java I use openoffice connected to postgresql database via jdbc. I would like to know if java and jdbc connectors are problems for libreOffice and if not what is the best metnod for compiling libreoffice so that java (Openjdk7 ) and latest versions of posrgresql-jdbc are supported. The above link also recommendscompiling for postgresql support with the --with-system-postgresql switch My 'system' posrgresql is in /usr/local, so is there a way of setting pgsql's absolute path for libreOffice to find?

Most BLFS users probably don't build either of them, or want them. As to your other questions, I have no idea. For postgresql in /usr/local I would expect it to be found [ and if you had different versions in /usr and /usr/local I would expect the version in /usr/local to be used ], but LO is a very long compile, even with -j4, and my guesses might not match what it really does. So if you don't get definitive answers you should expect to try to build it several times, and to log the builds so that you can find the first error message if it does fail. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
