Description Mattia Verga 2023-08-11 17:04:42 UTC
Hello @dtardon,
in order to address some build failures in LibreOffice 7.6 it looks like it is needed to update cppunit to a more recent commit [¹] (there's no new release yet, but LO upstream uses bundled and patched cppunit sources).

This will trigger a soname bump, so it is probably needed to request an exception to Fesco.
I have set up a testing COPR repository [²] to test rebuild all packages which depends on cppunit.

Is it ok for you to do such update? Otherwise we'll have to see if it is possible to use a bundled cppunit to build Libreoffice 7.6 for F39.
I can also take care of the upgrade (provided the dependencies rebuild goes well) if it's ok for you.

Please let us know, so we can know how to proceed with LibreOffice 7.6 update.
Thank you.
