Great to hear that. :)

I can see that happening when 'make DESTDIR=something install' is used.
The TDF binaries don't use that feature, so such issues are detected
when the first Linux distro tries to package the source. ;)

This fixed the problem for me:

Make sure to check the result after make install, if the symlink still
points to
'/build/libreoffice/src/185d60944ea767075d27247c3162b3bc-unowinreg.dll',
you probably want to replace that symlink with a real copy, as users
won't have access to '/build/libreoffice/src/' when they install your
package. :)
