Ah, I *think* (see below for long details) see why.

And yes, it's might be because the Debian buildds do -A builds and the opimization of build-dependencies for indep builds comes in.


Here especially (I think, didn't testbuild yet)

USE_GSTREAMER=n


(Although this whole thing is behind --enable/-disable avmedia,

cf. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/configure.ac?h=libreoffice-25.2.3.2#n3336 (but the default IS yes:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/configure.ac?h=libreoffice-25.2.3.2#n1536

and

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/extras/Module_extras.mk?h=libreoffice-25.2.3.2#n49


- which exists since 2014 wnd wee last updated in 2021.. Though above USE_GSTREAMER=n is from 2024 -

so should be on per default even if disabling the only avmedia backend, I at least don't see an other check which would disable it.


And that hasn't changed since 7.4.7 in stable and when sticking some AC_MSG_CHECKING/_RESULT diagnostic in there I still  get

checking whether to build avmedia... yes
checking how to build and package galleries... internal src images for desktop

[...]

checking whether to enable the GStreamer 1.0 avmedia backend... no

which looks OK)



Will try to figure something out...
