Nothing that sounds better. If we split up "extras" in the "main" repo,
my main concern would be solved anyway, so I would be fine with "main"
and "extras" in that case.

Ok.

Good question regarding 'minimal' and 'regular'. I am not totally
decided. Is there a way to have both? For the day to day development I
think an easy and fast way to build a minimal office would be the
greater benefit. But that demand might clash with demands from QA side ...

From the build environment POV you definitely can have both, in case we
taught "instsetoo_native" and "postprocess" that e.g. a build without
help content, extras etc. is valid. Not a big deal, but someone has to
do it.

Cool, that is an encouraging outlook.

Our build system concept also had a different idea for how developers
should work with OOo: the build already should have created a runnable
instance of OOo, no packaging required. In that case you can build
whatever you want, with extras or without, if it runs it is usable for
developers.

Sounds good :-)

The new build system is capable of
working with several (sub-)repositories, the old one still needs the
"source_config" crutch.

Yes, I now found for the new system there is the environment variable
gb_REPOS which takes the list of repos. Lets assume it contains the two
repos 'main' and 'extras'. What happens if the directory 'extras' is not
present? Does the build abort with error, or does it continue with
warning? Can we make it so that it does continue with a gentle note?

As gbuild already has shown that it works without code changes with or
without "l10n" repo, this is not a problem. I don't remember the
details, but we can look that up when necessary.

Agreed, that is not so urgent at the moment. Thanks a lot anyhow.

Kind regards,
Ingrid
