He tries to confirm that my patch (https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/248/) is working on current master: 1. apply my patch 2. add --enable-mozilla to autogen.lastrun 3. make clean make dev-install 4. run compiled soffice.bin --base 5.

Re: [GERRIT] moz build fixed on Ubuntu -- was Re: --disable mozilla necessary for Ubuntu
As far as I can tell I can't build with the patch. I'm trying again just to be 100% but my 1st attempt failed. I had thought it built but forgot default was now disable mozilla, when I enabled it and re-made the build, it failed on me. I am now trying one more time from a clean build just with patch applied. I will report back shortly about my progress Joel On Sun, Jul 1, 2012 at 11:13 PM, Joel Madero jmadero@gmail.com wrote: Well I was able to install with mozilla enabled but I am unable to do the test case of importing the thunderbird address book.
