Re: [gentoo-dev] Office team needs developer help

[Bob Wya]

@Andreas,

By coincidence I've just been playing around with the live build of
libreoffice today. I heard the interface had a bit of a re-vamp (which is
very much the case!!)
I seem to have to work around this bug...
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1333073
by setting:
--disable-mergelibs
(which I gather hurts performance)

Do you know if there is any other way around that? I see this is a frequent
on-off issue since it was "officially supported" (from around 2012)...
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2012-January/023675.html

Apart from a settings panel that is a bit dark - everything else seems to
be OK in the 4.5.0 git master build I've been playing with...
