I left it running all evening; it took somewhere between 2.5 and 5.5 hours to complete (which it did first time of asking). This was a first-time build on a VM - quad 3.1GHz i5-3450 processor, 2Gb memory allocated and running Mint (was swapping more than I'd have wished). Having established it would build and run (with the same video problem, incidentally), I finally looked at the sources. Now I begin to see why changes take so long not a comment in sight for one thing, and a spider's web of complexity. Sheesh!

Re: [libreoffice-users] getting LO source
I just looked it up on the development page.
This text was given:
All our source code is hosted in git:
Clone: $ git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core #
Clone: $ git clone
http://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/libreoffice/core.git # slower
This was the text you listed:
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core
libreoffice
By looking at the command line text you are using, it looks like you had
the wrong command structure.
Looks like you added "libreoffice" after the "core" command. Can you
replace the #" with "libreoffice"?
Will it work that way?

The page at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/BuildingOnLinux
recommends using git, so I tried the suggested
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core libreoffice
only to be told
"Cloning into libreoffice'...
fatal: remote error: access denied or repository not exported:
/libreoffice/core"
(I also tried git clone -n with the same result. I suspect the
web page should show the -n ???)
Help please?

Mike,
For me, it's downloading... I'm at 25% and no specific issue. I copy
pasted your line directly.
Try again now? Maybe a network or a server error that has since been fixed?
