Still, as far as I understand the task, the problem is not *building* it, but debugging, which implies that you possibly want to disable threaded calculations in the built LibreOffice instance config. To do that, make sure that you do not enable OpenCL (Options->LibreOffice->OpenCL) and multi-threaded calculation (the bottom of Options->LibreOffice Calc->Calculate). Yet, you should be aware that some of the problems that you might want to debug *could* be related to the calculation mode; and choosing a different calculation mode (or building with specific configuration, if it would be possible) could change the end result and prevent you from successfully debugging. In that case, you might still need to find ways to debug multi-threaded processing; e.g., finding problematic routines by reading the code or watching how threads are created, and putting breakpoints in relevant places before the calculation starts, so that gdb could break into it correctly. Hope this helps; possibly you would like to come with a specific example where you debug (a place in the source code), which steps you would like to enter, and what happens for you actually - that could enable to suggest what to do in a specific case, and learn by example. -- Best regards, Mike Kaganski
