The other change led to a small improvement, but also a query. |
2 |
|
3 |
I installed the latest stable boost-1.42.0-r2 + boost-build-1.42.0 , |
4 |
which go in new slots; I also updated to icu-4.6 + numpy-1.5.1 |
5 |
(the latter is probably irrelevant here, but Icu is needed for OO). |
6 |
Using more haste than sense after 'emerge -cpv =boost-1.41.0-r3' |
7 |
showed nothing depended on that version, |
8 |
I unmerged it & the corresponding boost-build-1.41.0 , |
9 |
then trying to remerge openoffice-3.2.1-r1 , I hit a configure error. |
10 |
After I restored the apparently unneeded versions of Boost(-build), |
11 |
Openoffice compiled without any further complaint. |
12 |
|
13 |
Can anyone explain why the latest stable Openoffice can't use |
14 |
the latest stable slotted Boost(-build), which is used only for OO ? |
15 |
Perhaps the devs have tripped up slightly in the sequence of updates. |
16 |
|
17 |
After the updates described, the OO splash screen now appears |
18 |
after c 2 sec , where before it took c 5 sec to show up, |
19 |
so there's a very nice improvement in performance anyway. |
