Why would this be linux/unix specific? xpdf code is used for the pdf-import extension, and that is available for Windows as well. > 2) The build requires GNU cp, which is inconvenient for > the BSDs and MacOS X: You don't need GNU cp to build on Mac. > http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2010-October/000586.html You should have read the initial message, or the current situation. If you use --disable-build-mozilla / --disable-mozilla, you only need XCode on Mac, no other external stuff. (unless you're on 10.4, then you also need gnu make >= 3.81) When building mozilla (nowadays actually seamonkey, but the configure switch remained the same), you need libIDL and its dependencies in addition (glib, gettext, and pkg-config for convenience) ciao Christian
