30 somebody is able to provide a patch or sed. In these cases, please mark
31 the dependency as currently broken and move the \-\-with-system-poppler
32 line to a comment. Also please switch poppler between recommended and
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
35 the variation in build times will be lost in the noise. - ken

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

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

768
769 <para>
770 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
771 <application>Java</application> support in

773 deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by
774 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice
