Hi Julien.

This is from a standard AWS (Amazon Web Services) Linux build.  

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN made no difference:

  [program]$ export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen
  [program]$ ./soffice --headless
  /opt/libreoffice6.2/program/soffice.bin: /lib64/libdbus-1.so.3: no version
information available (required by /opt/libreoffice6.2/program/libmergedlo.so)
  /opt/libreoffice6.2/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error:
/opt/libreoffice6.2/program/libmergedlo.so: undefined symbol:
cairo_surface_get_device_scale
  [program]$ env|grep SAL
  SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen

An update to cairo is not available in the "standard" AWS Linux environment.

LO was installed by downloading from the archives, then removing the "desktop"
and "integration" RPMs then using rpm -i *.rpm

Is it possible to find out what version of cairo this Libre Office is built
against?
