And it will assume all libraries build by the old build system to also be named libbarlo.so instead of libbarli.so. So if library bar is build by the old build system and library foo by the new one but links against bar, they would need to be renamed at the same time. Given the stuff in tail_build links against pretty much everything, doing that you would not make you change a little bit at a time, but in one big move -- at least for a given platform. I also consider that a not a Bad Thing(tm) given the stuff I said about this causing lots of rebuilds. But you will find that out yourself when you start working on this, I guess. ;) Best, Bjoern -- https://launchpad.net/~bjoern-michaelsen _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
