There have been several reports of this problem on the current (late 2015) iMacs. Changing the colour profile for the display to a non standard one seems to fix the problem. However this could change the colour balance on the display. I don't have an iMac and the problem doesn't occur on my 13" MacBook Pro. I haven't updated my 15" MacBook Pro to macOS Sierra yet. AOO 4.1 3 has no problems on OS X ElCapitan. The current 27" iMac has a 5K display. The 21" has a 4K display. I wouldn't want to use a generic colour profile if I owned one. thanks for this update.

Re: Failure to build on Windows 10
Thanks. I'll try that next. On 10/18/2016 7:30 PM, John D'Orazio wrote: Not sure if this will fix but I myself found that avoiding paths with spaces can fix a number of errors. So I had the Windows SDK installed to a custom path where I substituted spaces with underscores. Then in my configure script I have: SDK_PATH="D:\Microsoft_SDKs\Windows\v7.0" As for the JDK home path, I was not able to customize the installation path but you can get the short form of the path using the cygpath tool. For example: cygpath -m -s "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_73" will give you "C:/PROGRA~2/Java/JDK18~1.0_7", so in my configure script I use: --with-jdk-home="C:/PROGRA~2/Java/JDK18~1.0_7" Same with NSIS, I installed it to a custom path with no spaces and in my configure script I have: --with-nsis-path="D:/NSIS" For dmake and epm I am using the sourceforge mirrors as suggested by Andrea Pescetti: --with-dmake-url=" http://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/dmake-4.12.tar.bz2"; --with-epm-url=" https://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/epm-3.7.tar.gz"; Maybe give this a try and see if it helps any?

Maybe WONT_FIX with the true argument that the community does not have the manpower to switch to another tool. Or would we keep this as a link to maybe switch to Jira. (I personly prefer Jira over Bugzilla. But I think it is a huge effort to switch the tracker.) Moving to a new tracker (even if it was more user friendly) only makes sense if there is a reasonable number of QA people triaging the reports and of developers actively fixing bugs. Reporting a bug creates the obvious expectation that the bug will be fixed. If the tool is friendlier/simpler it will get more bug reports but also more people with more expectations...
