The failure of the start of `libreoffice` with error message

    The application cannot be started. 
    User installation could not be completed.

is very unhelpful. Add the reason for the failure to the error message.

Fine enhancement request. Marking as NEW.

FYI - unlikely to be implemented any time soon. This would require a major rework of the code to signal what went wrong and then report it back. Would require a volunteer to take on a relatively challenging enhancement request.

A pity that an error message without reason for the error which is always a nuisance is allowed by the design. Thanks for the info.
