At least on Mac OS X, in the latest master builds from http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/MacOSX-Intel@27-OSX_10.7.0-gcc_4.2.1_llvm/master/ the about box does not show anymore the “LibreOffice” logo image (document symbol and text, both white, on green background). Instead, there is only the plain text “LOdev” in black. This is a regression: while the master build from that directory with pull time 2012-10-12 22.05.41 still includes the logo image in the about box, the build with pull time 2012-10-19 23.57.57 just says “LOdev” at the same place, and that is still true in the newest build with pull time 2012-10-25_06.12.34. This is not an important bug for the user, but it makes the about box look worse. And maybe this is just the symptom of some more serious building problem? I don’t know. Probably related to bug 56400 - “No useful build ID in about box of current master builds”, which has appeared at the same time.

@ Rainer Bielefeld / bfoman: Could you please check: Is this also true on Windows and/or Linux, or is this problem limited to master builds for Mac OS X?
We already had something similar some time ago in "https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52095", but that was ok after a while. [Reproducible] with parallel installation of Master "LOdev 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ - ENGLISH UI / German Locale [Build ID: 370m0(Build:0)]" {tinderbox: @6, pull time 2012-10-20 14:21:35} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with separate User Profile for Master Branch. Related to "Bug 56247 - Help-About shows "370m0(Build:0)" instead of Unique Build Identifier"?
Still reproducible with today’s master build for Mac OS X (Intel) -- LOdev 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: ce2690; pull time: 2012-10-30 00:06:37) -- which has fixed bug 56247 - “Help-About shows ‘370m0(Build:0)’ instead of Unique Build Identifier”; this means that the two bugs don’t have the same root.
@ Petr Mladek: Hi Petr, you have fixed/reported the fix for bug 56247 -- “Help-About shows ‘370m0(Build:0)’ instead of Unique Build Identifier”. Now *this* bug seems similar/related to bug 56247, and was introduced around the same time as the latter, so it may have similar roots ... Can you please take a look at this bug and see, if it is possible to fix it? (Or is this not a bug at all, but intended behaviour?) Thank you very much!
I am afraid that the two bugs are not related. The wrong buildid was related to moving the optional git repositories tp submodules, so we needed to update the git command. I can't imagine how it could affect the logo. Anything is possibly, though :-) If time permits, I will look at it by the end of this week. Any volunteer is welcome.
Heh, the SVGloading stuff is temporary disabled because of rebasing on top of AOOo code. There are few #ifdef FIXME_REMOVE_WHEN_RE_BASE_COMPLETE in the sources. So, it will get fixed once the rebase is finished and all modules are back in consistent state. Michael says that it is going well.
Ah, thank you! It is nice to know what the reason of this problem is, and that it will go away soon (hopefully).
Picking this up.
Fixed in master as: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=634ee953f1d090871834f6bc53faafaa7b96b874

@ Muthu: Thank you very much for fixing this issue! Could you please backport this fix to 4.0.0? (Else our shiny new version would ship without logo ... ;-)

VERIFIED as FIXED: In the current master build for Mac OS X (LOdev 4.1.0.0.alpha0+, Build ID: 413d1a932eb4c47510dd05905c1ff467cb186d0, TinderBox: MacOSX-Intel@1-built_no-moz_on_10.6.8, Branch:master, Time: 2012-12-19_04:13:37), the logo image is present again. Tested on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Intel). Thank you again, Muthu, for fixing this issue!
