520 poppler-0.85.0 to be used.

551 a warning that the configure script attempted to find JAVA_HOME

553 you disabled java.

565 instead of its internal one.

568 <para>
569 <parameter>--with-system-boost</parameter>: This switch enables using
570 system boost. From time to time, recent versions of boost break
571 the build of libreoffice. In this case, it is possible to use the
572 bundled copy of boost, by removing this flag.
573 </para>

585 described below after '--without-java'.

597 <application>LibreOffice</application> based application.
598 </para>
599
600 <para>
601 <parameter>--enable-release-build=yes</parameter>: This switch enables a
602 Release Build. <application>LibreOffice</application> can be built as a
603 Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation
604 paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the
605 words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).

612 the bundled one.
613 </para>
614
615 <para>
616 <parameter>--with-system-*</parameter>: These switches prevent
617 <application>LibreOffice</application> from trying to compile its own
618 versions of these dependencies. If you've not installed some of the
619 dependencies, remove the corresponding switches.

635 distributions which want to break the package into parts.

640 tells <application>LibreOffice</application> to use &lt;count&gt; CPU
641 cores to compile in parallel. (Do not include literal angle brackets.)
642 The default is to use all available cores on the system.

687 dialogs if GTK+-3, Qt5 and Plasma are all available.

689
690 <para>
691 <option>--enable-lto</option>: This switch will enable Link Time
692 Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB).
693 This is said to make <application>LibreOffice</application> programs
694 load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a
695 spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference
696 in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work
697 files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile
698 might be much slower.

700
701 <para>
702 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
703 <application>Java</application> support in
704 <application>LibreOffice</application>. Java is needed for the
705 deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by
706 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice

743 <application>LibreOffice</application>, libfreehand-0.1.2, does not compile
744 with ICU-65.1 because of a missing semi-colon at the end of one line in one
