By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Build log:

===================================================================
You're missing libpoppler 0.5.1 or later (binaries and/or headers).
chalk won't be able to import pdf
note that the qt-binding of libpoppler is required
===================================================================

Poppler 0.12.4 installed to /usr/lib. The following configure options
do not help:

--with-extra-libs=/usr/lib
--with-extra-includes=/usr/include/poppler/qt3

Ruby development files were not found, or Ruby <= 1.8.1 was found,
Ruby scripting support for KOffice will not be built. If you don't
need Ruby scripting, you can ignore this message.

Yet the configure log also says this:

Poppler error messages fixed in this patch, already in GIT:

Fix configure files to support ruby 1.9

This patch allows the configure files to find ruby 1.9 files.
Comment 3 Darrell 2011-12-08 18:08:25 CST 
This bug report may be closed when the patches are merged to GIT. :)

But does koffice build with ruby1.9?  I thought it failed rather badly...
Comment 5 Darrell 2012-01-11 19:21:08 CST 
True. Bug report 735 covers the ruby 1.9 problem. These patches were submitted a while before 735 was filed. These patches only cover the configure errors, not the actual building. So my original problem title is slightly off. :)

A few days ago I added some comments to 735. For R14 we might need to disable ruby hooks if version 1.9.x is detected, but we need appropriate configure messages so the user knows why. But for R15 we should throw serious attention at what to do about 735.
Comment 6 Darrell 2012-10-14 02:19:38 CDT 
Closing this bug report as resolved. Remaining issues with koffice and ruby are being addressed in bug report 735.
