Description Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2012-12-12 13:45:06 UTC

The build environment variable BUILD_SPECIAL is currently not set in the build environment.
When this build environment variable is set the one or the other stuff is activated or done different.

The purpose of the issue is to reduce of the usage of this build environment variable as far as possible and to document the remaining usages.

Comment 1 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2012-12-12 13:56:11 UTC

One of the usages is to enabled the "OOo improvement via usage tracking" named feature. This feature can not be easily activated as a certain web service would be needed.
Solution for the corresponding usages:
- replace BUILD_SPECIAL by also not set build environment variable ENABLE_OOOIMPROVEMENT

It also reveals the certain variables specified in /main/instsetoo_native/util/openoffice.lst are only used for this feature. This will be documented in new file /main/instsetoo_native/util/openoffice.lst.README
