Li-Wen Hsu 342dabb28d gbuild: Use date -r for the BSDs as on macOS
When building with `--with-java`, `jar --date=` gets an empty value on
the BSDs due to "date: illegal option -- d" and causes build failure.

All the BSDs use `date -r EPOCH` and the `date` in macOS is derived from
BSD's.  `date -d @EPOCH` is GNU coreutils syntax.

Claude Code (Opus 5.5) was used to analyze the issue and to draft the
first fix.

Tools and Makefile Fragments Necessary for Compilation

This module contains many tools and makefile configuration pieces, critical for building LibreOffice:

  • bin/

    • contains lots of tools used during the build:

      • concat-deps* these aggregate, and remove duplicates from module dependencies, to accelerate build times.

      • make_installer.pl this script executes the compiled instructions from the scp2/ module to create an installer, and/or to do a local install for the smoketest.

  • gbuild/

    implementation of the LibreOffice build system See gbuild/README for more info.

  • gdb/

    lots of nice python helpers to make debugging -much- easier that (eg.) print UCS2 strings as UTF-8 on the console to help with debugging.

  • inc/

    old / increasingly obsolete dmake setup and includes, we are trying to entirely rid ourselves of this

  • src/

    useful standard / re-usable component map files for components which shouldn't export anything more than a few registration symbols.

  • flatpak-external-tarballs.json.in

    This file is processed by solenv/bin/generate-flatpak-manifest.sh and the result copied manually to https://github.com/flathub/org.libreoffice.LibreOffice/blob/master/external-tarballs.json The flatpak/build.sh in the LO dev-tools repository is obsolete.
