           Summary: use absolute patch for gperf
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.3.0 RC1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: bapt at FreeBSD.org


On FreeBSD we have an old (to old for libreoffice) version of gperf in base
(/usr/bin/gperf) and we can install a newer version from ports
(/usr/local/bin/gperf)

by default the configure script fails finding the old version of gperf.
if I set GPERF=/usr/local/bin/gperf before the configure script it finds the
newer one and is happy.

but building libreoffice fails. because the following files :

filter/source/svg/makefile.mk
oox/source/token/makefile.mk
writerfilter/source/ooxml/makefile.mk

uses gperf from path.

Two work around are possible : declare /usr/local/bin first in path or replace
gperf by /usr/local/bin/gperf in those files.

The best thing would be to use the absolute path of the detected gperf (sorry I
don't have a patch for that)
