Found it...

For Arch (and others?) users anywhere: if pacman does an upgrade and ... removes LibreOffice, it does...remove the whole slew. You're left with a startup, with greyed out stuff. You need to re-install the components by hand:

Quote:
pacman -S libreoffice-writer libreoffice-cals libreoffice-impress
...so, who said Arch is not for the faint of heart?

Hope I could help out...

By the way, dont send me any beer - I'm more inot coffee

Thor
