Fixed this issue but now something failing in scp2 during dev-install:

... installing module gid_Module_Root_Files_Images ...
DestDir:
Rootpath: /home/rm/src/libo/solver/unxlngx6.pro/installation/opt
:
[error snip]

Does this means that gid_Module_Root_Files_Images is breaking or is it 
the next one?

I'll take a look at it.

Quite the opposite, removing them cause build issues :)

Nice!

It looks it is needed by vcl/headless/{svpdata.cxx,svmain.cxx,svapp.cxx} 
. vcl does not build anymore if i remove vcl/unx/generic/plugadapt/salplug.

Will think about that when i'll finally have a build.

Thanks a lot!
