Libreoffice calc is not starting

Hi i am on artix linux and libreoffice calc is not starting, i can’t find the solution anywhere.

error message: Component cannot be loaded, possibly broken or incomplete installation.

full error message: loading component library <file:///usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libsclo.so> failed at /usr/src/debug/libreoffice-fresh/libreoffice-7.5.2.2/cppuhelper/source/shlib.cxx:312

i tried reinstalling and resetting, no success.

Your Artix Linux distribution’s package seems to be faulty or not fully installed or missing dependencies. You can try to

ldd /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libsclo.so

(note the library name originally should be libsclo.so and not libsco.so, typo?) and see if any library is reported as not found and could be installed. Or ask your friendly distribution package maintainer.

Or you could install a build provided by TDF downloaded from Download LibreOffice | LibreOffice - Free Office Suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft .

yeah a library is missing,

liborcus-parser-0.17.so.0 => not found,

I’ll have to ask the distribution package maintainer.

you’ll have to try:

pacman -U https://universe.artixlinux.org/x86_64/libreoffice-fresh-7.5.2.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

The install will prompt to uninstall conflicting packages liborcus and libixior.
