Bug 582632 – app-office/libreoffice-bin-5.1.2.2-r1 should depend on gnome-base/dconf : /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdconf.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Thomas De Schampheleire 2016-05-10 07:56:57 UTC]

After emerge of libreoffice-bin-5.1.2.2-r1 on a system without dconf, starting libreoffice gives this message:

    /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdconf.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Previous versions of libreoffice (libreoffice-bin-5.0.5.2-r1) did not have this dependency.


Workaround: manually install dconf

Expected situation: Preferably the dependency on dconf is not really needed and libreoffice-bin is built without it.
If it is a real (new) dependency, this should be expressed in the ebuild.

Use flags used on libreoffice-bin:

[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[        : I - package is installed with flag     ]
[ Colors : set, unset                             ]
 * Found these USE flags for app-office/libreoffice-bin-5.1.2.2-r1:
 U I
 - - gnome                          : Add GNOME support
 - - java                           : Add support for Java
 - - kde                            : Add support for KDE (K Desktop Environment)

 - - python_single_target_python3_4 : Build for Python 3.4 only

What exactly is blocking this? 

Either compile libreoffice-bin without dconf dependency (assuming this is still possible) or update the ebuild to express the dependency.

Or is there more to it? Please share more details in that case.

Not clear why this showed up now; the build chroot should only have dconf for the gnome build. 

Anyway, the automagic dep is fixed in 5.1.4 now and we'll fast-stabilize and fast-generate bin packages for that soon because of a security bug.

[Comment 5 Andreas K. Hüttel 2016-07-20 22:15:41 UTC]

Fixed in 5.1.4.2

[Comment 6 Thomas De Schampheleire 2016-07-29 18:04:49 UTC]

Confirmed fixed, thanks!
