Is because of the issue Lionel posted on gerrit:
"You need to make sure that firebird looks for libEngine12.so where it is
installed, and not in /usr/local/firebird/plugins/"
Am I right?
Yes, that's correct. With the new Thunderbird 3.0 architecture, the
client library has three "providers"
- remote
- engine12
- localhost
In the default configuration, they are tried in that order. "remote"
and "localhost" are built-in in the fbclient shared library, and
"engine12" is in a separate plug-in shared library which firebird
dlopen()s.
"remote" is for connecting (TCP, named pipe, ...) to a firebird server
(whose hostname is given in the database specification
e.g. host:/path/to/db or inet://host/path/to/db)
engine12 is "access the file directly in-process" (database
specification is /path/to/db)
localhost is a special case of remote that connects to localhost when
given a filename as database specification.
What happens is that in the current state of your patch, firebird
looks for libEngine12.so in /usr/local/lib/firebird/plugins (or
something like that), and it is not found. So it tries with remote
(which decides not to handle the filename we give it), tries to load
engine12 (fails) then tries localhost which tries to connect to
localhost. That's why the error message looks like that.
As I see, Firebird tries to use some remote access instead of local
connection ( Remote provider instead of Engine12 ?).
Basically yes, but see above.
it is so, it may be sensible to have a firebird.conf file in the
installation directory, where we can set up that only the "Engine12"
provider should be used.
That is true for embedded database; however we can also (not
implemented yet, but let's not close that door) use our internal
firebird driver to connect to a remote firebird server. So I'd
recommend not to have that in a firebird.conf that is "always" active
within LibreOffice.
To change the path of libEngine12 I may need to write a patch to
change it somewhere in workdir/UnpackedTarball/firebird/gen/Release/.
Try this: firebird should dlopen("libEngine12.so") without any path. I
think it will work. If not, passing the right --prefix to firebird's
./configure or something like that. Or patching the code to hardcode
it :)

I am going to work on the following issues:
- Build Firebird 3 on Mac OS and Windows systems too. For that, I may need
some help.
- Adding tommath as external dependency if its necessary.
- I got an error while creating a new database and I'm going to examine it:
