Linux build of LibreOffice is, or am I confusing with go-oo times?)
Nah, there's also various internal libs so old that they were even outdated
years ago (zlib for example)
And then there is Windows.
Which we can ignore for not requring external libs on Linux :)
In general, isn't a LibreOffice purpose-built for some modern Linux distro *already* using the
system copies of these libraries, not its own copies?
If it's possible and the distro cares, yes.
