Bug#1122336: libreoffice: Smoketest fails on hppa and powerpc due to missing soffice.sh
Source: libreoffice
Version: 4:26.2.0~beta1-1

Hello,
on hppa and powerpc, the libreoffice package fails due to a failing smoketest [1]:
[_RUN_____] (anonymous namespace)::Test::test
./unotest/source/cpp/officeconnection.cxx:77:(anonymous namespace)::Test::test
setUp() failed
- equality assertion failed
- Expected: 0
- Actual : 4
(anonymous namespace)::Test::test finished in: 6ms

Test name: (anonymous namespace)::Test::test
setUp() failed
- equality assertion failed
- Expected: 0
- Actual : 4
Failures !!!
Run: 1 Failure total: 1 Failures: 1 Errors: 0
After some investigation and discussions with upstream [2], I figured out that the problem
is the missing wrapper script instdir/program/soffice for the soffice.bin binary. This script
is normally generated from "desktop/scripts/soffice.sh via makefile targets in desktop/
CustomTarget_sofice.mk and desktop/Package_soffice_sh.mk" (quoting Stephan Bergmann from [3]).
I therefore copied the script manually and rerun the smoketest which immediately succeeded:
glaubitz@perotto:~/loffice/libreoffice-26.2.0~beta1$ cp -av desktop/scripts/soffice.sh instdir/program/soffice
'desktop/scripts/soffice.sh' -> 'instdir/program/soffice'

Thus, we need to figure out why the build doesn't actually generated the wrapper script
for hppa, powerpc (and probably m68k) in order to fix the smokeest on these targets.
