Does that work with the older libraries like libstdc++ on CentOS6. The libraries are versioned, so the APIs used by something built on CentOS 6 are present in the CentOS 7 library, but the reverse is not true. >> >>> 4.1.x is still built on CentOS 5. >> > > Yep. > > The question isn't so much what versions we support but rather what we > use/specify as our canon builds.

Sure, but we'd need to disable gstreamer totally. > There was some discussion about making it a runtime dependency instead > of a build one, but afaik no work has been done in that regards. I thought that Damjan implemenented that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
