Been there too. For junit, I have added a sed to the book, which allows to build junit-4.11. For junit-4.12, or junit-5.0.x, the build system is maven, so it is a big change, and not suitable for 8.2. Note that we should move to maven for 8.3, since fop can be built with maven too (and is deprecating ant builds). For freetts, the same trick as for junit allows to compile, but then the excutable fails with an exception about type casting. I'd suggest archiving freetts now, and moving to flite after 8.2. other issues: I am also seeing the flickering in abiword, as reported in https://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13791. Looks like the bug is not fixed upstream. Do not know exactly what to do. The proposed patch is big, and does not apply cleanly to recent versions of abiword. Also a few things I am seeking advice about: On the Mutt page, there is: "Mutt will rebuild the html documentation if libxslt is present, then use that to update the text manual - even if none of the specified browsers are present. That will create an empty text file, so we will save the shipped file.", and then, nothing is saved. Should this sentence be commented out? I do not like the sed in ptlib, I'd rather use --disable-odbc (nothing uses ptlib with odbc anyway). See my preceding message about ptlib. And last, all the test in perl File::BaseDir in the userdirs.t part have failed for me. I guess there is a conflict with xdg-user-dirs, which I am using for LXQt. Should this be mentioned?
