You didn't supply any output or any details about your system, so your
question can't be properly answered. I can make a guess, so from the
man
page:
r reinstall (forced for some reason, possibly due to
slot or sub-slot)
R replacing (remerging same version)
I'd guess libreoffice needs to be rebuilt and is triggered by a
sub-slot
(in the old days you would have had to run revdep-rebuild or emerge
@preserved-rebuild to find this)
I imagine this is in no way related to zsh-completions, that just
happens to be on the command line. It's related to running emerge.
If you require a better answer, please provide proper emerge output.

Here is a full example:
emerge -auv1 app-shells/zsh-completions
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Does portage keep a "todo list" anywhere?
Thanks,
