Note to Willy:
I hadn't launched Libre Office Draw in a month or so. Since that time I updated to 6.0.5. Today Draw failed to open. The error was something like:
Code:
loading component library file:///opt/libreoffice6.0/program/../program/libsdlo.so failed
Running ldd against the library revealed a dependency on
libavahi-common.so.3 and
libavahi-client.so.3.
There are two LibreOffice packages at slackbuilds.org. One performs a full build and has been updated to note the avahi dependency. The other package (Willy is the maintainer) converts the upstream RPM. The slackbuilds.org web page is not yet updated to reflect the new dependency.
To use Draw from the converted RPM package, be sure to build
libdaemon and
avahi packages from slackbuilds.org.
Avahi does not need to run from the rc.d scripts. Only the shared libraries need to be installed to run Draw.
Interesting to me is the 6.0.4 version did not have this dependency. I understand if the dependency was introduced in 6.1, but 6.0.5 is supposed to be a bug fix release.
Willy, thanks for the package. I hope this helps you and others.
