Perhaps 5 years ago, I built it based upon LibreOffice 4.0 using the following commands in a terminal: 1) sudo apt-get install git 2) sudo apt-get build-dep libreoffice 3) $ git clone git://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core 4) cd core 5) ./autogen.sh 6) apt-cache search gnome-vfs 7) sudo apt-get install libgnome-vfsmm-2.6-dev 8) ./autogen.sh 9) ./g checkout -b libreoffice-4-0 origin/libreoffice-4-0 10) ./autogen.sh --enable-ext-mariadb-connector --enable-bundle-mariadb --enable-gstreamer --disable-gstreamer-0-10 11) make fetch (if autogen.sh ends with an error) 12) make dev-install Comments: I have also modified /etc/apt/sources.list so that item #2 above does not cause an error. #7 was entering the result gotten when running #6. #9 has to be updated to -6-1 from the -4-0. Why was --enable-gstreamer required in this step?
Probably nobody remembers, LO 4.0 is not supported for a long time.
#12 causes an error message: dev-install is not a valid target.
Right, these days you don't have to do that manually, you get a ready-to-run installation set in "instdir" once the build finished.
What changes need to be made in these steps to make this connector? I have not found an answer to this question in all of my searches.
The mysql connector extension is replaced by the internal mysql Base driver -- did you try building just master and see if it does what you need? Regards, Miklos
