LibreOffice in Slackware.

kjhambrick · 10-14-2022, 06:12 AM

Not to steal AlienBob's Thunder but here goes

Eric published libreoffice-7.4.2-x86_64-1alien and related packages 'this morning':

Code:

+--------------------------+
Fri Oct 14 06:01:16 UTC 2022
libreoffice: updated to 7.4.2 for Slackware 15.0 and -current.
  Depends on openjdk11.
  On -current, please also install boost-compat and icu4c-compat to get back
  the older libraries that are part of Slackware 15.0 but not -current.

I removed the SBo and installed the usual LO 7.4.2 packages and ... it works !

ScreenShot: [Help][About] attached.

For me it doesn't work

Code:

root@xxxx:~/scripts# libreoffice
/usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libQt5XcbQpa.so.5: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Font_Format

I have the libraries icu4c and boost compat installed:

Any idea?

kjhambrick · 10-14-2022, 08:36 AM

No idea ...

I am running Slackware64 15.0 and from context I assume you're running Slackware64 Current ?

In Slackware 15.0, /usr/lib64/libQt5XcbQpa.so.5 comes from /var/log/packages/qt5-5.15.3_20220318_e507d3e5-x86_64-1_slack15.0

Not sure about Current ...

Not sure this helps because the kernel already told you that FT_Get_Font_Format is missing but here goes:

And following the 7.4.2 update, it's back... Genuinely have no clue at this point.

it works normally for me now no sliver window without the "kludge"

libreoffice-7.4.2 -current:
- doesn't work on my Intel i7-6700,
- but works on my Ryzen 3950X machine.

They are both slackware64 -current machines with no multilib and up to date.
On the Intel machine, I did : "upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new */*.t?z" from the slackware64/ directory to be sure to have a full install of slackware64 -current, and libreoffice.sh is set to "export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965" as I haven't any graphic card on this machine.

What's wrong with?

LibreOffice Enables RISC-V 64-bit Support
If the royalty free open-source processor ISA RISC-V is to enjoy success on the Linux desktop, obviously it needs an office suite... LibreOffice as the open-source office suite alternative to Microsoft Office is now seeing proper RISC-V 64-bit support.
