You should also not build as root. Sorry, but I think I mentioned extracting, not building. Even when *extracting* as normal user, the permissions of the parent directory got changed which can lead to big trouble, depending on what else that directory might be used for. I confirm that. Need to create a build directory to extract LO, for this reason. In my case, it is x86 (IA 32). the tarballs for the sources are created with http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/bin/lo-pack-sources while the permission change is indeed undesirable (and easy to fix), the ownership one is a self-created problem/see no fault here.
