libreoffice-3.5.4.2-r1 fails against the libexttextcat-3.3.0, which was just added to the tree: /var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.4.2-r1/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.4.2/lingucomponent/source/languageguessing/simpleguesser.cxx: In member function 'std::vector<Guess> SimpleGuesser::GuessLanguage(const char*)': /var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.4.2-r1/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.4.2/lingucomponent/source/languageguessing/simpleguesser.cxx:121:29: error: 'utfstrlen' was not declared in this scope Diffing libexttextcat-3.2.0 and 3.3.0 shows that utfstrlen was renamed to utf8_strlen, but the upstream fix for this actually seems to be a switch to plain old strlen, see http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=25a605f36544582bd454d4bc0e71e684749a0b80 I'll start a build with the above commit applied later today and see if it at least compiles.
Thanks for the report and the patchid. The patch was added to 3.5.4.2-r1 ebuild. I am working on 3.6alpha1 release so I didn't see it break and expected it to work with 3.5 fine. I cherry-picked the named commit to 3.5 branch so with next version it will be resolved upstream.
Now it fails with: Making: libguesslanglo.so /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lexttextcat Which is because the library is now libexttextcat-1.0.so, not libexttextcat.so. I hoped applying the RepositoryExternal.mk part of http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=578b7df37638cf9afad327900d2140aabd0c3556 would get me past that, but that's apparently not how this build system works. Looking a little closer I think this part is a libexttextcat bug: pkg-config --libs libexttextcat gives me -lexttextcat. I'll go look at their upstream, but it'd be nice if you could confirm the libreoffice build system picks up the library name via pkg-config (there's a PKG_CHECK_MODULES call and AC_SUBST(LIBEXTTEXTCAT_LIBS) in configure.in so this seems plausible).
Fuuu. It is a bug in the .pc file. If you take look on it: Version: 3.3.0 Requires: Libs: -L${libdir} -lexttextcat Cflags: -I${includedir}/libexttextcat/ And it should say something like: Version: 3.3.0 Requires: Libs: -L${libdir} -lexttextcat-1.0 Cflags: -I${includedir}/libexttextcat/ So could you please to try to patch (just sed it) it and revision bump it if it builds for you? I can test it no sooner than in the evening (CEST)
I'd found the same problem, and libreoffice does build with it fixed. I've committed libexttextcat-3.3.0-r1 with a patch for the .pc.in file. Can you get this upstreamed, since IIUC you're already in contact with or part of them?
Already done :) http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/libexttextcat/commit/?id=34ada0ee0cf4235c7324014369eacfadeda6b393
