All,
Has anybody been building LibreOffice packages with Trinity dialog
support?
We mention this support in our draft R14 press release.
Despite knowing that compiling LO takes several hours, I would like
to test Trinity dialogs. I suspect that anybody wanting Trinity
dialog support is more or less left on their own to build LO. I
doubt anybody upstream provides that support.
Yet I lack information how to proceed and I have not found any
written instructions.
Is the 'thirdparty' patch in the git repo current? I ask because of
this blog article about KDE4 integration:
http://dilfridge.blogspot.nl/2013/12/libreoffice-kde-
integration.html
The author implies that external dialog support has suffered bit
rot. I have no idea whether than includes Trinity or just KDE4.
What LO build script options are needed? Is something like one of
the following needed:
--enable-kde
--enable-kde3
--enable-qt
--enable-qt3
--enable-tqt
I never built LO from source therefore don't know what
configuration options are available or recognized.
If we are going to announce LO dialog support then should a handful
of us should test this support?

Some time ago I tested LibreOffice with TDE integration as available in
LibreOffice-tde PPA on the build-farm.
I tested version 4.0.3-14 on Debian Wheezy i386 and was very unuseable.
On the File/Open nothing happened. On the File/Save as occurred freezing
LibreOffice. I was forced to upgrade to LibreOffice from wheezy-backports
(4.1.2-2~bpo70+1 without TDE integration).
Then I tested version 4.0.2-0ubuntu4 on Ubuntu Saucy amd64 and there
everything worked smoothly.
