Summary: Office will not start and exits with a segmentation
fault on Centos 8
Product: General
Version: 4.1.7
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux 64-bit
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: ui
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
starting with a fresh Centos 8 install and ensuring there is no Libre or
OpenOffice installed 4.1.7 using DNF (new YUM) package manager.
Installed RPM's and freedesktop RPM.
Office installed without error.
Office would not start using program launcher.
used Bash and started ./soffice from /opt/openoffice4/program dir.
exited with a segmentation fault.
Found this on user mailing list:
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16363.html
which had link to Bugzilla issue:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124948
followed instructions from Ariel's comment and entered command:
$ ldd -v /opt/openoffice4/program/libvclplug_gtk.so
and found I was also missing libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0
but when I entered:
$ dnf whatprovides */libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0
I received not found.
The library needed was only in the Centos PowerTools repo which was not enabled
on my system.
After enabling it with:
$ sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools
I found it was in gdk-pixbuf2-xlib
installed with:
$ sudo dnf install gdk-pixbuf2-xlib
And now the office starts
I do get this:
Gtk-Message: 19:00:56.058: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
but it does start.
