"Related fdo#51252: No more prereg, no more unopkg sync": "Now that
5c47e5f63a79a9e72ec4a100786b1bbf65137ed4 'fdo#51252 Disable copying
share/prereg/bundled to avoid startup crashes' removed the use of
share/prereg, there is no longer need to generate it in the first place
(by calling 'unopkg sync' at build or installation time), and so no need
for the 'unopkg sync' sub-command, either. This also allows to simplify
some of the jvmfwk code that was only there so that 'unopkg sync' (which
can require a JVM) can work in 'hostile' environments (during build and
installation)."
This is a somewhat large patch, removing stuff all over the code base.
I checked it on all of Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows, but might well have
missed one or the other nuance, esp. in terra incognita like
setup_native/source/win32/customactions.
Hence, I would suggest to not jeopardize LO 3.6.1 with this clean up,
but only backport it to libreoffice-3-6 after branch-off of
libreoffice-3-6-1 early next week. (This clean up would nicely remove
the root for <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44628>
"unopkg.exe does not find VC runtime during install (extension
registration)," but it might be better to address that with yet another
targeted band-aid fix for LO 3.6.1, like by just not calling "unopkg
sync" from the msi install scripts.)
