Description:
A little while ago there was a furor around Libreoffice not working too well with GTK3. The problem was pretty serious at the time but if I recall correctly mostly ended up being a problem with the GTK3 packages being compiled wrong. Certainly the last version of libreoffice compiled with the GTK3 plugin works fine on all the Arch systems, albeit with a version of libicu from AUR. Since the time when this bug came up and now both the GTK3 packages and also the GTK3 plugin within libreoffice have seen updates so I think that it might be time to re-add the GTK3 support. That's not to say drop GTK2 support (unless it really is a choice between one or the other) but add it back so that users can make use of it, preferable by default but at least have the option.


This task depends upon
