IP Clearance: Impact

The following list describes the impact on GUI level of removal and replacement of libraries as described on the IP_Clearance page. Its intended purpose is to keep track of lost or modified functionality.

Library

Impact

lp_solve

Temporary: CoinMP is candidate for replacement
Menu entry removed: Calc: Tools->Solver...
This entry would open a dialog for solving a constrained (integer) linear equation

xpdf

PDF import can only be built when the poppler library is pre-installed on the system.

MySQL Connector/C++

MySQL connector can only be built when the C++ connector is pre-installed on the system.

glibc

No impact for user. Developers can not use getopt() function to parse command line.

SVG: librsvg, libcroco, libgsf, gdk-pixbuf, glib, gettext, pango

SVG using an external renderer is disabled, thus this new feature for 3.4 is there but creates no visualizations of embedded SVGs. Work for a replacement is ongoing.

libwpd

the WordPerfect filter ("WordPerfect Document (*.wpd)") won't be available anymore. No replacement until somebody will work on a filter extension that can be installed separately

fonts (liberation and gentium)

The liberation and gentium basic fonts are not installed together with Apache OpenOffice.
