LibreOffice Wont Open

Libre office wont open sine the latest Tumbleweed update this past week. Here is the error when I try to launch libreoffice from the command line:

beta~> libreoffice**
/usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: relocation error: /usr/lib64/libgnutls.so.30: symbol nettle_rsa_pss_sha384_sign_digest_tr, version HOGWEED_4 not defined in file libhogweed.so.4 with link time reference**
beta~>

How did you update? Looks like you used something else than the required ‘zypper dup’.

Hi, I used the YasT update tool and then when that did not fix it I used ‘zypper dist-upgrade’. Thanks.

Don’t use YaST to upgrade, or some desktop tool. On TW only use ‘zypper dup’. Did that fix it? Did you reboot the system after the dup ?

I did reboot the system. A zypper update and looks like I have some problems lol

Choose the above solution using ‘1’ or skip, retry or cancel [1/s/r/c] (c):

I told you not to use anything else but ‘zypper dup’. Why then run ‘zypper update’ ?

Plus, you have mistakes in your repo URLS. And, what is a PowerPC repo doing in your TW install?

tell us your repo list as it seams broken

zypper lr -d

first fix your bad repo’s then re-run

zypper dup

nothing else

As a further reference, you may find the following thread to be of interest – especially the solution: <https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/528284-Libre-office-crashes-when-opening-document>.

Don, I think that before getting there, the OP needs to fix a borked system, or reinstall and stick to some basic rules that are well documented.

Knurpht, yes, correct, the OP’s system is more than “out on a limb” and therefore there’s probably more than just “getting the system back up and executing (running) correctly”, there’s also the correction of each user’s configuration files to consider.

the ones in red are bad repos ie one is for LEAP one is for arm and two are for powerpc processors remove them then do a full vendor change to the main repo (because of vendor stickiness doing zypper dup might not be enough) as you are having issues with LibreOffice remove the LO repo too you can always re-add it latter (repo #9)

sudo zypper rr 2 3 9 10 13
sudo zypper dup --from 4

you had 17 repo’s but you didn’t have packman you really need the packman repo for opensuse

sudo zypper ar -f ftp://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ packman
sudo zypper dup --from packman

do all the steps above reboot and your TW should be fine

Where are these rules “well” documented?

Hi
There are more there as well… 6, 9 and 12, even then would still be suspect of the other enabled repos…

Thanks you!! this worked and I can now open libreoffice files again. I did use “zypper dup” with the “–force” and all works fine now. I will stick with zypper dup from now on and also research/sort out my repository situation.

good that you fixed it
and as malcolmlewis said there are a few other repo’s that can be problematic
remove the repo’s home:gbvalor, home:dominig:opencpn-sandbox home:cornell_vrdc as they are for TW but they are user repositories and might have incomparable packages (just keep the ones you really need)

zypper rr home:gbvalor home:dominig:opencpn-sandbox home:cornell_vrdc

you should also install vlc-codecs and flash-player to get full multimedia support

zypper iin vlc-codecs flash-player*

And now, please, perform some “housekeeping” (removing dust and other undesirable artefacts):
