[SOLVED] Libreoffice Draw and Impress seem to need avahi

If you followed philanc's post above, you would't have needed to install avahi.

Why not just disable Avahi support?

Code:

./autogen.sh \
...
    --disable-avahi \
...

I usually just use the pre-built libreoffice binaries and install avahi from SBo. Avahi is a runtime dependency so there's really no need to rebuild libreoffice specifically for avahi unless you absolutely don't want it enabled.

Sometimes all I want is to get up and running with writer/calc as quickly as possible so I skip avahi.

What about https://slackware.uk/people/alien/sl...ce/pkg64/15.0/ ? Also pre-built, but without Avahi.

What about it? That'll resolve the avahi problem but my use case centers around writer/calc so the avahi thing never really comes up. I also tend to avoid alienbob's repo simply because I customize my install in ways that is often incompatible with his packages. And watching gcc output is more fun than fighting with everyone else for bandwidth to his mirrors.
