But retroactively compiling all this on Windows for 3.5 is not feasable.

I know, because I did exactly that ~5 times today. So, with a Linuxinstall in a Virtualbox, even Windowsuser can help out here.

Hi Bjoern, could you provide a md5sum of the tar package? I'm on slow internet and after downloading more than 7 hours I get nino@chef:~/liboqa/Material/bibisect> tar --lzma -xf bibisect-3.5.tar.lzma lzma: (stdin): File format not recognized tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now Is the size correct? nino@chef:~/liboqa/Material/bibisect> l b* -rw--- 1 nino users 785268428 16.

Using this, you can point the developer to _exactly_ when the regression happened, which consequently means that the developer will be able to fix the bug much faster, and much more effectively. This 'bibisecting' can be done by anyone, even by people with no hacking skills - so please, if you have a "favorite" regression in LibreOffice, try bibisect, and point us (developers) to when it happened - I am sure the bug will get much more attention than without that :-) All the best, Kendy ___ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/

Hi all, I added a bibisecting Howto to the wiki, please try getting started with bibisecting and report back if you are missing information on how to proceed. And remember: Bibisecting a bug will make it much more likely that your bug will be fixed quickly as a bibisected regression is much easier to work out. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/index.php?title=QA/HowToBibisect In hope of seeing a lot of regressions marked with 'bibisected35' in the whiteboard status. If there are questions, dont hesitate to ask!
