30 somebody is able to provide a patch or sed. In these cases, please mark

33 optional according to whether or not we use the system version. The
34 installed size will be increased by 2 MB if using the shipped poppler, but

205 the build process will compile and install its own (often older)

643 <parameter>--enable-release-build=yes</parameter>: This switch enables a
644 Release Build. <application>LibreOffice</application> can be built as a
645 Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation
646 paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the
647 words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).

737 <para>
738 <option>--enable-lto</option>: This switch will enable Link Time
739 Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB).
740 This is said to make <application>LibreOffice</application> programs
741 load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a
742 spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference
743 in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work
744 files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile
745 might be much slower.

747
748 <para>
749 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
750 <application>Java</application> support in
751 <application>LibreOffice</application>. Java is needed for the
752 deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by
753 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice
