Thanks for the pointer - after some digging I think I've found the issue:

/usr/bin/ld: inkompatibles
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/7/../../../libXinerama.so wird bei
der Suche nach -lXinerama übersprungen
/usr/bin/ld: inkompatibles //lib/libXinerama.so wird bei der Suche
nach -lXinerama übersprungen
/usr/bin/ld: inkompatibles //usr/lib/libXinerama.so wird bei der Suche
nach -lXinerama übersprungen
/usr/bin/ld: -lXinerama kann nicht gefunden werden


[ce@localhost temp]$ file
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/7/../../../libXinerama.so
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/7/../../../libXinerama.so: symbolic

[ce@localhost temp]$ rpm -qf
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/7/../../../libXinerama.so
libXinerama-devel-1.1.3-9.fc27.i686

So, the package libXinerama-devel.i686 seems to install into
x86_64-redhat-linux and confuses the whole system.

Hopefully I am able to resolv this.

Thanks & br, Clemens

Look for XineramaIsActive in config.log. That may give you a hint as to
why the test fails. My guess is a compile error, as, judging from what
have you written about your other problems, your system doesn't appear
to be in a good state. (Several of us build on F-27 daily. Just as we
did on F-26, F-25, etc. before. So a problem like yours would be
noticed...)

Sure, I manually instalelled the devel packages - however to make
sure, I also executed the dnf builddep command you mentioned.
However, the configure run still fails with the message mentioned
before - the header is there, but configure does not find
XineramaIsActive.


Then you'd need to look into config.log why it's failing.

Sure, I manually instalelled the devel packages - however to make
sure, I also executed the dnf builddep command you mentioned.
However, the configure run still fails with the message mentioned
before - the header is there, but configure does not find
XineramaIsActive.

checking whether and how to use Xinerama... yes, with dynamic linking

checking for XineramaIsActive in -lXinerama... no
configure: error: Xinerama not functional?

Any idea why LibreOffice thinks my Xinerama is not functional?
Can I disable it somehow?


Did you install the relevant -devel packages, libxslt-devel, 
libXrandr-devel, libXinerama-devel?  Generally, `sudo dnf builddep 
libreoffice` (as given at 
) should be a good 
approximation of installing whatever packages will be needed.
