I'm either blind or nothing from libreoffice-draw explicitly links to libreoffice-impress, at least on library level.

I cannot see it either, but the bug is actually fixed when you install libreoffice-impress.

The same thing was happening before except with writer and calc. If calc wasn't installed, the writer wouldn't start. It's not like that today, but it is a reoccuring problem with libreoffice.

Yes, but previously Writer was explicitly linking to library provided by Calc. I failed to find the missing file so far.

While I'm still working on the issue, we'll probably move away from split packaging after 4.3 release.

Just to add to the idea that returning LibreOffice to one piece is a good thing for Arch, currently the form wizard in base doesn't work unless writer is installed (segfault in java). I don't use this software normally, but it seems that I find this stuff often. If it matters to anyone, I don't see any added value to this being split.
