Details

Description:

LibreOffice doesn't start after 6.2.0-2 upgrade, due a kio obligatory (not optional) dependency: requiring libKF5KIOFileWidgets.so.5 shared library

Package: libreoffice-fresh
Package version: 6.2.0-2

Additional info:

DE: LXQt
LO without Java (JRE) integration (not using database features).
LO Default look, do not use Themes

Launching LO from menu:
Splash window is showed, but Menus and Open shortcuts doesn't work at all.
LO freezes.

Launching Libreoffice from terminal:

$ libreoffice
Warning: failed to read path from javaldx
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/lo_kde5filepicker: error while loading shared libraries: libKF5KIOFileWidgets.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libKF5KIOFileWidgets.so.5 is a file that belongs to kio package.

kio is an OPTIONAL dependency for libreoffice-fresh 6.2.0-2

kio package pulls a lot of (unwanted) KDE dependencies, thus, converting a pure Qt DE like LXQt, or a GTK based DE, in a "KDE slave".


Steps to reproduce:

Launch LO 6.2.0-2 from terminal
This task depends upon

Libreoffice 6.2 uses the kde5 (or the gtk3_kde5) VCL by default on lxqt. If you don't want to use it, select a different one in /etc/profile.d/libreoffice-fresh.sh
