The release notes for the latest version of LibreOffice (24.2) state that
"The
minimum requirements for building and running LibreOffice on Linux
have been raised from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7/CentOS 7 to Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 8/CentOS 8 (or equivalent)".
Since
Red Hat/CentOS 8 does not have a 32-bit edition, I wonder if my
problems compiling for 32-bit are due to a possible lack of support.
I have
been compiling LibreOffice for Linux 32-bit since the Foundation
stopped releasing 32-bit binaries. I have been able to solve
problems, sometimes on my own, sometimes with the generous help of
people on this very mailing list.
But now
I'm stuck.
I am
using Debian 12 Bookworm 32-bit as my OS base. I downloaded all the
dependencies asked for on the BuildingOnLinux Foundation wiki.
Since
trying to compile 24.2 with a simple 'make' treats all warnings as
errors, I tried using
make CFLAGS="-Wno-error" CXXFLAGS="-Wno-error"
But this approach only resulted in some non-compileable modules.
I was
finally able to compile most of them using
make -Wall -Wno-restrict
But it stops at one of the last stages with this message:
"/usr/bin/ld:
Error: /tmp/ccDBatVc.ltrans0.ltrans.o(.data.rel.ro) is too big
(0x3ef58 bytes)
/usr/bin/ld: Could not set dynamic section sizes: memory exhausted
collect2: Error: ld returned 1 exit state
make[1]: *** [/home/linux/Downloads/libreoffice-24.2.0.3/Library_merged.mk:11: /home/linux/Downloads/libreoffice-24.2.0.3/instdir/program/libmergedlo.so] Error"
Since I
have allocated 12 GB of RAM in the virtual machine, I don't know why
the memory is exhausted.
Guys, have any idea what's going on?
P.S. I
get the same error message when I run 'make' alone.
