Do you know, whether that include something, what might have an effect
on macro security?

AOO security depends on NSS and that is MPL-licensed == category-B.
It used to also depend on Mozilla which was also had the Mozilla license
(MPL) of course.

After building with --enable-category-b the button is active now.

Good. Thanks for the feedback!

It's a pity that Apache OpenOffice security features are disabled when category-B stuff is not available for whatever reasons. There are plenty [1] of category-A licensed AOO libraries that cover what AOO needs from the currently used cat-B licensed NSS.

Developers/Organizations that strongly insist that no cat-B stuff should ever be used to provide AOO's core functionality might want to work on replacing NSS with one of these cat-A libraries. Are there any volunteers?
