I have for many months been trying to build Libreoffice on ARM with no success. There is a working build of it on Debian so it must be possible. I suspect the first thing they did is remove a whole bunch of obscure options that are hardly every used. This would remove pre-requisite packages and reduce the build time.
I am trying now to build LO 5.0. It runs for a day and then starts over again. Can someone explain why this never builds?
I am going to look at the package on Debian and see what options they use and how they break it into sub-packages. Maybe I will try building the Debian package on the openSuse Build System to see if there is a problem with the build system.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Getting in touch with maintainer of LO in openSUSE might help.
