Hi Pedro,
I wasn't able to install gconf on Ubuntu and there is no information on how to
install the package on bing.com.
ubuntu@i-2dmws819:~/aoo-4.1.8/main$ sudo apt install libgconf2-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libgconf2-dev

On Ubuntu 18.04 you need
sudo apt-get install g++ gcc bison flex libarchive-zip-perl libcups2-dev
libpam0g-dev \
gperf libfreetype6-dev libxaw7-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxrandr-dev
patch \
libgconf2-dev libgnomevfs2-dev ant libgtk2.0-dev junit junit4 libidl-dev
liborbit2-dev \
openjdk-8-jdk liblablgl-ocaml-dev
Hope this helps ;)

Pedro
