I ran the command as "bash -x /usr/bin/libreoffice --calc --nologo" and everything works fine down to the following (last) command, which opens calc with no logo. However notice what also appears: + exec /opt/libreoffice7.0/program/oosplash --calc --nologo javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! Warning: failed to read path from javaldx oosplash is an ELF binary that actually runs (all?) the LibreOffice programs. While that seems obscure enough for me, the problem (not finding a java runtime system) has nothing to do with the symlinks I have set up for my keyboard shortcuts so they work independent of where LO actually lives on my machine. I don't know why this is happening, but I do know it has been going on at least since LO 5, and there have been many many comments on this email list about it being a bug, to which I agree. I have not seen any errors or other impact of this problem - maybe I don't use the JRE enough, or the errors are invisible for everything I am doing, and I find it disturbing that this keeps getting reported and not fixed. That said, I consider my problem resolved - no need for further input here. If someone wants to comment on the JRE issue, please post in a new thread, don't complicate this one. Thanks.
