I dislike secret ENVVARIABLE incarnations that enable things and not easily discoverable without trawling through READMEs. But you'd need the variable anyway, because, as I have said, full dbglevel=2 build is hardly a sensible thing to do.

This enables all the OSL_ debugging stuff there is (well, maybe there is some really rare stuff that is only enabled for OSL_DEBUG_LEVEL 2, but I don't know about any), which spews unbelievable amount of stuff on stdout. If we used dbglevel=1 as default, only assertions would be enabled and the output would be much more manageable (practically nonexistent in most cases, from my experience). I never use --enable-debug ( some my opinion aint worth much ) but the above seems more sensible that adding even more options Noel ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

I dislike secret ENVVARIABLE incarnations that enable things and not easily discoverable without trawling through READMEs. So: --enable-debug=2 (with 1 being the default) or --enable-assertions (==--enable-debug=1) would be my preferred choice.
