So it looks like the issue was with the manual harfbuzz installation I
did with building one of the projects some time ago. I removed all the
files that had harfbuzz in name from /usr/local and everything seems to
be working fine now
** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu)

Title:
libreoffice crash, undefined symbol: hb_graphite2_face_get_gr_face
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Libreoffice doesn't open or work
launching from terminal errors out with following error:
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error:
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so: undefined symbol:
hb_graphite2_face_get_gr_face
A quick google search gave solution to remove
/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libharfbuzz.so.0, which works although
temporarily
the package "libharfbuzz0b" reinstalls this lib and it causes same error again
Also the package libharfbuzz0b is used by other packages so cant be
removed from apt directly, leading to no permanent solution to this
problem
Info about the libreoffice and libharfbuzz0b packages -
