Re: Bug#801865: libreoffice: FTBFS[kfreebsd-*]; tests hang in sw_macros_test with FreeBSD 10

I found that built binaries showed successes on one machine and failures
when copied to another, but was unable to debug beyond that, as it is
presumably a race.

If you wouldn't mind doing that, I'd like to disable the problematic
test (sw_macros_test), or all of them if that's easiest for you.

I don't see this as hiding problems, so long as a bug report remains
open against libreoffice or kfreebsd-10.  Not all bugs in Debian can be
fixed.  This one seems particularly hard to solve right now, unless we
find other ways to trigger it, or have new tools or expertise to debug
it, which we may in time.

I'd like users to get the latest version of the package, since it
appears functional despite this problem, and there are many users
already (via UbuntuBSD) of libreoffice >= 5.1 packages on kfreebsd-10.

Thanks,
Regards,
