Libreoffice-6.0.3.3 Alienbobs version


For about the last 3 or 4 iterations of this package it fails on startup with "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::uno:eploymentException'


Fatal exception: Signal 6"

I was unable to solve this but circumvented the problem by compiling from scratch using alienBOBs slackbuild.
With this latest version compilation fails at the autogen/configuration stage. After extracting all the stuff I get a failure in config.log "configure: error: in `/tmp/build/tmp-libreoffice/libreoffice-6.0.3.2':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables". and exits with
Exit 77

Strangely if I run autogen.sh manually on the extracted libreoffice
files the configure completes successfully.
I have spent quite some time googling and experimenting but have got nowhere.
Any ideas anyone ( for either problem)

Rgds

Mike

Try if LibreOffice starts properly if you enable GTK3 support in /etc/profile.d/libreoffice.sh (remove the '#' in front of "export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3" and make sure there's a '#' in front of all the other lines).
After editing that file, you need to login again before trying LibreOffice.

Thumbs up

Thanks Eric. Sadly that change made no difference to running your package. However I did upgrade to your latest gpgme and I'm now able to run your slackbuild so by tomorrowish I should have a package that will run. Can't fathom why tho'.
