I built it in two ways:
1. Upstream targz with --disable-gui works and converts PPTX
Build deps installed as recommended in
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/BuildingOnLinux#Debian_and_Ubuntu:
% docker run --rm -it -v$PWD:/x:ro debian:bookworm
# apt update
# apt install -y git build-essential zip ccache junit4 libkrb5-dev nasm
graphviz python3 python3-dev qtbase5-dev libkf5coreaddons-dev
libkf5i18n-dev libkf5config-dev libkf5windowsystem-dev libkf5kio-dev
autoconf libcups2-dev libfontconfig1-dev gperf default-jdk doxygen
libxslt1-dev xsltproc libxml2-utils libxrandr-dev libx11-dev bison flex
libgtk-3-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev ant
ant-optional libnss3-dev libavahi-client-dev libxt-dev
# git clone https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core lo
# cd lo
# git checkout libreoffice-7.4.4.2
Then to imitate flags from Debian packaging:
# ./autogen.sh --disable-gui --disable-online-update
--disable-fetch-external
# make -j8
...
make[1]: *** No rule to make target
'/lo/external/tarballs/boost_1_79_0.tar.xz', needed by
'/lo/workdir/UnpackedTarget/boost_1_79_0.tar.xz'. Stop.
Hm, so Boost is not mentioned in the deps? OK, repeat with:
# ./autogen.sh --disable-gui --disable-online-update
# make -j8
... (lots of downloads and builds fine)
# instdir/program/soffice.bin --convert-to png /x/A.pptx
# ls A.png
ls: cannot access 'A.png': No such file or directory
(This is another quirk that the *first* run does not produce the .png --
maybe some inital user config setup?. Anyway, repeating fixes it:)
# instdir/program/soffice.bin --convert-to png /x/A.pptx
convert /x/A.pptx -> /lo/A.png using filter : impress_png_Export
# ls A.png
A.png
2. Debian source build
This one also works but only with the binary in the instdir-nogui, *not*
if I install the resulting .debs:
% docker run --rm -it -v$PWD:/x:ro debian:bookworm
# echo 'deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main'
>>/etc/apt/sources.list
# apt update
# adduser x
# apt install sudo
# echo 'x ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' >>/etc/sudoers
# su - x
$ apt source libreoffice-impress-nogui
$ cd libreoffice-7.4.4~rc2
$ sudo apt build-dep -y libreoffice-impress-nogui
$ debuild -b -uc -us
Packages are built in the parent dir, but first I tried with the binary
in the build tree:
$ instdir-nogui/program/soffice.bin --convert-to png /x/A.pptx
$ # no output whatsoever, so I check:
$ echo $?
81
(Hm? OK, repeat:)
$ instdir-nogui/program/soffice.bin --convert-to png /x/A.pptx
convert /x/A.pptx -> /home/x/libreoffice-7.4.4~rc2/A.png using filter :
impress_png_Export
$ ls *png
A.png
Fine. But if I install the package from the .deb file in the parent
directory together with all those dependency .debs that were built (same
happens if I just install the impress-nogui .deb, and all the rest from
the repo):
# dpkg -i libreoffice-impress-nogui_7.4.4~rc2-2_amd64.deb
fonts-opensymbol_102.12+LibO7.4.4~rc2-2_all.deb

libreoffice-impress-nogui:
...

The same if I try with the installed soffice.bin:
# dpkg -S soffice.bin
libreoffice-common:
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.libreoffice.program.soffice.bin
