That is completely missing the point. The tinderbox *IS* using baseline. And since the baseline is not recent enough to build 32bit anymore, there is *no way* to have it still produce builds. Otherwise 32bit binaries could still be provided. > This is not a hypothetical.

My personal interest is having baseline builds verified. So there is no point if the build succeeds in a current distro, but cannot run on the end-users systems because of glibc or other requirements. But again: anyone can setup a tinderbox... ciao Christian _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
