Release LibreOffice for Pandora

Nope. It's my first one.

Thanks for the update PtitSeb I am traveling right now and will try it out this weekend. Sorry for the delay. I appreciate your hard work on so many wonderful releases. If I can find somewhere with free WIFI I will download when I can.

Sorry for the long delay on trying this new update. This new update to 5.0 is fantastic. I have not done extensive testing, but used both writer and calc and both work wonderfully!

The first time startup is a bit slow, but not unusual. After the first use, everything was pretty snappy quick.

When I first clicked on the menus (I use a BT mouse) at the top, there was a delay and it seemed like they were not working. But clicking a second time the menus functioned just fine and were smooth and responsive. So there is a bit of a delay on the menu functions, but otherwise this is just a great package. So to be clear, at the first click, the menus take a bit to respond, but after about 5 seconds all is smooth. Not sure why that would be happening.

Thank you for your hard work PtitSeb in porting all these amazing titles for us to use!

@lordbobjones: Glad you like it.

On my side, I found writer unstable and the menu not always useable (because of the "scroll-but-cannot-select-item" thingy with small screen). I think I may wait for next stable before putting on the repo, unless the stability issue is just me (but it happens on both my gigahertz and CC).

Just for info, I have compiled (some time ago) the release 5.0.3.2 of LibreOffice and got the same behavour (both Menu issue and Stability issue). I tried again by removing gtk support to use plain X11 and while the gui now behave in a better way with the Scale factor, I still have the same issue.

I think the stability may be a side effect of the lto optimisation, so I will probably recompile everything without.

But before, I'll try the beta of the 5.1 and hopefully the menus will work fine...

Anyway, for those who are interested, the 5.0.3.2 is at the same link (it replaced the 5.0.2.2)...

Thanks!!!

ptitSeb · Nov 28, 2015

Version 5.1.0beta1+ has good menu. But I still have stability issues so I'll recompile without lto to see if that improve things.

ptitSeb · Dec 8, 2015

Stable build, with Java and Spell checker, available on the repo.

It's based on the 5.1 beta sources, and the menu is working properly, spell checker also works...

Build 08

----------

Updated to 5.1 beta

I didn't time the build, but it take a couple of hour, not more (on a VM using 4 Core and 10Go of RAM, host is a i7 3930K@3.8GHz).

Yep, not the same order of magnitude in fact. It takes around 3 days now on the Pandora, last time I tried.

I got the same with Palemoon (1h against 2days, or GCC 20 min again 1.5day).

Ok. Not sure on how I will fix that without breaking SZ support. I'll try to think of something.

joachim · Dec 15, 2015

I tried different versions and they worked till 4.3. Since 4.5 no more running under Slackware. Maybe this helps. So I use 4.3. Nice work.

I repackaged, there was an issue with Calc in build 08. I tried a thing for Slackware, but no idea if it worked or not.

Build 09

----------

Repacked to make Calc launch

Under Slackware, I had to :

ln -s /usr/lib/libgmp.so /usr/lib/libgmp.so.3
