LO Draw: does NOT launch when LO 7.5 or 7.6 from OBS or 7.6 from Leap, but does WORK when 7.4 from OBS
Last modified: 2023-12-06 16:31:00 UTC
Dear all, my system: openSUSE Leap 15.5. Currently I use the repository "LO 7.4 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.4/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/> and LO does work fine. But when using "LO 7.5 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.5/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/> or "LO 7.6 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.6/15.5/> or "LO 7.6 Leap Distribution" (no special repository, just the Leap repositories), the application LO Draw does NOT launch, either way: LO Start Center, LO Draw (directly), LO Start Center and then choose Safe Mode and then Draw, "libreoffice --draw" (on console), "libreoffice --safe-mode --draw" (on console). All I get is the short splash screen. But the application itself does not open. When using the console, there are no hints thrown (error messages or such). The other applications like Writer or Calc do work fine.
Addition: I just tried the AppImage from the LibreOffice official download site. There, Draw does work. Both on Still 7.5.6.2 as well as Fresh 7.6.1.2 version. So, the issue is somehow openSUSE RPM related.
Addition: solution locally, i.e. package dependency cleared, needs action on repository management… Well, I had block locks for packages libreoffice-base, libreoffice-impress and libreoffice-math (because I don't use Base, Impress or Math, so I have had installed just Calc, Draw, Writer). So far, for my "LO 7.4 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.4/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/> installation, this has been no problem. But when using "LO 7.5 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.5/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/> or "LO 7.6 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.6/15.5/> or "LO 7.6 Leap Distribution" (no special repository, just the Leap repositories), the application LO Draw does NOT launch. I now just found out that Draw, i.e. package libreoffice-draw, requires Impmress, ie. package libreoffice-impress. With the lock on libreoffice-impress being cleared and the package libreoffice-impress installed, LO Draw now works fine. (N.B.: I still have the block locks on libreoffice-base and libreoffice-math). So, it rather seems, from "LO 7.5 OBS" <https://cdn.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/7.5/openSUSE_Leap_15.5/> and newer versions, package libreoffice-draw explicitly requires package libreoffice-impress (to work properly).
Hello Gunner, many thanks for the report and for finding this additional dependency. I have updated the spec file for libreoffice to include the fix for this bug.
