Damage in macOS Silicon Mac installer for LibreOffice 24.2.7?

[Patrick Luby]

Thanks for the suggestion. It didn’t fix the problem but after my last post I did find the cause of the problem: it’s a complier optimization bug.

In my local release build, the problem stopped when I did a clean build and added the following in my autogen.input:

  --enable-optimized=no

Commenting that line out and doing a clean rebuild causes the problem to reappear so it’s definitely a bug in Xcode’s variant of clang.

Today I’ll try to find the right place in the code to turn off optimization like I did with a similar compiler optimization bug:
