Hi -

FYI - on https://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/ 
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/>

The epm version there is 3.7.

It can be configured as:

configure:1952:  --disable-epm           AOO includes self-packaging code, that 
requires
configure:1953:                          epm, however epm is useless for large 
scale
configure:2218:  --with-epm               Decides which epm to use. Default is 
to use
configure:2221:                   epm will be built.
configure:2223:  --with-epm-url=<URL>    Specify the location of downloadable 
epm source code. For example:
configure:2224:                            
https://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/epm-3.7.tar.gz
configure:2226:                            
http://epm.sourcearchive.com/downloads/3.7-1/epm_3.7.orig.tar.gz
configure:2227:                          Version 3.7 or later is required. Note 
that epm is under GPL license.

Any reason to make changes in configure, or should we warn?

Regards,
Dave
