Status of "Base 4.1.2 does not open Tables and Queries in Mac OSX"

What is the status of https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126622 ?

Empirically, it does not reproduce in 4.1.3. Do we have a definite patch 
for it? Should I list it in the 4.1.3 release notes as having been fixed.

The fix will have to wait for 4.1.4, just like all the Mac OS X El
Capitan and macOS Sierra build bugs (it is fixed just by building on an
OS X Mountain Lion):

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127099
OpenSSL headers removed on El Capitan, can be worked around by
installing OpenSSL from macports or homebrew; but this is just to build
for developing, a release cannot be built in this condition.

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127137
Xcode 8 not recognized in configure, patches attached on the bug.
Not much helpful as you cannot  build do to the following

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127138 Build broken on macOS
Sierra due to QuickTime Kit framework removal.  Apple removed the
headers, but applications using the framework still work; that is, you
can insert and play audio and video on macOS Sierra with 4.1.3, but
4.1.3 cannot be built.

In short, AOO cannot be built on El Capitan nor Sierra.


Besides this macOS build issues, there is
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127139 on some Linux 32-bit
systems.

IMO these are not stoppers for this release, and they are not regressions
introduced on the branch.

This is a known bug on Oracle Java, listed on
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.1.2+Release+Notes

Mac OS X: Due to a known bug in Oracle Java installations of Apache
OpenOffice on OSX that do not have the legacy Apple Java 6 installed
will not be able to recognize Oracle Java 7, 8, and possibly 9. The work
around until the Java bug is fixed is to install the legacy version of
Apple Java from the following link: Legacy Apple Java 6. This will allow
the portions of AOO that require Java to run properly.

You can try a Java-less database, linked to a spreadsheet document.

I did a first test under MacOSX El Capitain:

Install dev build 4.1.3
Install java JRE 8U101

activate JavaRe
start Base creating a new database

it wants to connect to a Java 6 version.

Hello
Do we have a test build for MacOSX 64 bit?

Then I will check it

IMHO Ariel should/could tell us what he has done with his Mac builds as 
the first positive verifications came with his builds [1]. I really hope 
he can. ;-)

It depends on Ariel. If a fix is not known, then IMHO it's difficult to 
mark it this way when you cannot tell what was done. "Doesn't happen 
anymore" sounds better in the case that the fix is not known.
