------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue May 2 08:33:19 -0700 2006 ------- @panbk: Always using what can be found on the system is nice if you think of OOo as something which is always build and distributed together with an OS. But there are more ways to distribute OOo than this. The versions compiled by Hamburg RE run on any current Linux x86 systems regardless if they bundle certain libs or not. The only requirement is glibc-2.2.4 or newer (shipped for instance with the stone old SuSE 7.3 systems). Solaris versions run on Solaris 8 and later. Windows even runs on Windows 98 SE, I think. The customer really doesn't have to think about if his OS has all depencies fullfilled, it just works. And this is how it should be. Add to this certain binary compatibility requirements, you don't really want to shut out 3rd party vendors of components on the whim. Of course, distributors like RedHat and Novell, the FreeBSD port teams etc like to have streamlined versions of OOo wich uses any system shared lib which is already bundled the OS. Valid request, and so we support both approaches at the expense of having a slightly lager repository - but that's not something the customer will see ... So I would suggest Caolans approach. On the other hand tidying up unused STL header inclusions is always a good thing, can you extract them from the patch? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
