544 a warning that the configure script attempted to find JAVA_HOME
545 automatically (even though that is passed in the environment). Omit this if
546 you disabled java.

558 instead of its internal one.

561 <para>
562 <parameter>--with-system-boost</parameter>: This switch enables using
563 system boost. From time to time, recent versions of boost break
564 the build of libreoffice. In this case, it is possible to use the
565 bundled copy of boost, by removing this flag.
566 </para>

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

592
593 <para>
594 <parameter>--enable-release-build=yes</parameter>: This switch enables a
595 Release Build. <application>LibreOffice</application> can be built as a
596 Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation
597 paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the
598 words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).

605 the bundled one.
606 </para>
607
608 <para>
609 <parameter>--with-system-*</parameter>: These switches prevent
610 <application>LibreOffice</application> from trying to compile its own
611 versions of these dependencies. If you've not installed some of the
612 dependencies, remove the corresponding switches.

635 The default is to use all available cores on the system.

682
683 <para>
684 <option>--enable-lto</option>: This switch will enable Link Time
685 Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB).
686 This is said to make <application>LibreOffice</application> programs
687 load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a
688 spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference
689 in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work
690 files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile
691 might be much slower.

693
694 <para>
695 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
696 <application>Java</application> support in
697 <application>LibreOffice</application>. Java is needed for the

699 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice
