Install Libreoffice -> Python flags trouble

I try to install libreoffice, but it stops with error:

What shall I do to install libreoffice?
 
If you installed python27 with PTH, you might try reinstalling without or vice versa:
Code: 
# cd /usr/ports/lang/python27
# make config    ; toggle pthreads option and save options
# make clean     ; to be sure old Python configuration file is gone.
# make reinstall clean
Then rebuild your libreoffice.

I've been having mixed results with/without pthreads when building ports that depend on Python.

Also, you want to post threads about ports in "Installation and Maintenance of FreeBSD Ports or Packages". Don't be surprised if a mod moves this thread.

Hope this helps.

That works, thank you!

On Debian, I fixed this by installing the `libpython3-dev` package.

(Note, I already had the libpython-dev installed but was still getting this error message.)

Before installing this package:

sudo find / -name Python.h /usr/include/python2.7/Python.h

After installing this package:

sudo find / -name Python.h /usr/include/python2.7/Python.h /usr/include/python3.5m/Python.h

I had previously successfully built LO, but now a year later ran into this error. Glad to have found a solution for it.

Bullshit, because on Debian you wouldn't build this package in the first place. Not to mention that this is totally irrelevant for FreeBSD.

Please keep in mind that you're responding to a 5 year old thread. And the solution to this problem has been found already: # pkg install libreoffice, done.
