Command Explanations

sed -e ...: The first sed prevents compression of the manual pages and the second one prevents the install from failing.

--with-vendor=BLFS: This switch sets BLFS as the vendor which is mentioned when you click "About" from the Help menu on the toolbar.

--with-lang='fr en-GB': This switch sets what languages to support. To list several languages, separate them with a space. For all languages, use --with-lang=ALL. Note that the translations file is not needed and won't be downloaded if using only en-US as a language.

--with-help: Without this switch, the help files are not built.

--with-jdk-home=/opt/jdk: This parameter will silence a warning that the configure script attempted to find JAVA_HOME automatically (even though that is passed in the environment). Omit this if you disabled java.

--with-myspell-dicts: This switch adds myspell dictionaries to the LibreOffice installation set.

--with-system-boost: This switch enables using system boost. From time to time, recent versions of boost break the build of libreoffice. In this case, it is possible to use the bundled copy of boost by removing this flag.

--disable-dconf: This switch disables compiling LibreOffice with the GNOME DConf configuration system support.

--without-junit: This switch disables the tests for the deprecated HSQLDB driver which is written in Java.

--without-system-dicts: This switch disables the use of dictionaries from system paths so that the ones installed by this package are used.

--disable-odk: This switch disables installing the office development kit. Remove if you want to develop a LibreOffice based application.

--enable-release-build=yes: This switch enables a Release Build. LibreOffice can be built as a Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).

--enable-python=system: This switch tells LibreOffice to use the system installed Python 3 instead of the bundled one.

--with-system-*: These switches prevent LibreOffice from trying to compile its own versions of these dependencies. If you've not installed some of the dependencies, remove the corresponding switches.

make distro-pack-install: This does a normal install, but if you add a DESTDIR environment variable it will also install a lot of (text) gid_Module_* files in the DESTDIR, to help distributions which want to break the package into parts.

--with-parallelism=<count>: This switch tells LibreOffice to use <count> CPU cores to compile in parallel. (Do not include literal angle brackets.) The default is to use all available cores on the system.

--disable-cups: Use this switch if you don't need printing support.

--disable-dbus: Use this switch if you've not installed D-Bus-1.8.0 or later. It also disables Bluetooth support and font install via PackageKit.

--disable-firebird-sdbc: By default, the ability to connect to a firebird database is enabled. Add this switch if you do not need that feature.

--disable-gstreamer-1-0: Use this switch if you have not installed gst-plugins-base-1.22.7.

--disable-postgresql-sdbc: This switch disables compiling LibreOffice with the ability to connect to a PostgreSQL database. Use it if you have not installed PostgreSQL and you do not want LibreOffice to compile its bundled copy.

--disable-skia: Use Cairo-1.18.0 for rendering instead of skia.

--enable-gtk3-kde5: This switch allows the Visual Class Library, which is responsible for widgets, to be built with KF5 file dialogs if GTK+-3, Qt5 and Plasma are all available.

--enable-lto: This switch will enable Link Time Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB). This is said to make LibreOffice programs load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile might be much slower.

--without-java: This switch disables Java support in LibreOffice. Java is needed for the deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice base. It is also needed for some optional user interface components.

--without-fonts: LibreOffice includes a number of third-party TrueType fonts. If you have already installed some or all of the same fonts, you may prefer to use the system versions.

--enable-kf5: Builds with KDE/Plasma integration. If (Qt-5.15.11 または qt-alternate-5.15.11) and/or KDE Frameworks-5.113.0 are not installed in /usr, the include and library directories must be specified in QT5INC, QT5LIB, KF5INC, and KF5LIB, respectively.

--enable-evolution2: Enables support for Evolution address books through Evolution Data Server. Note that Evolution Data Server must be installed for this feature to function.

--enable-qt5: This switch enables support for integration with Qt5 and the Qt5 theming engine. If (Qt-5.15.11 または qt-alternate-5.15.11) is not installed in /usr, the include and library directories must be specified in the QT5INC and QT5LIB environment variables.
