After installing Libreoffice24_02 on AlmaLinux 9 the program does not run because of a problem with a missing version information: libreoffice24.2 /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin: /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libmergedlo.so) /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin: /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libraptor2-lo.so.0) My OS is AlmaLinux 9.3: uname -a Linux nbstroili 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Jan 29 07:05:48 EST 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and I have installed the following version of libxml2: dnf list installed "*xml2*" Installed Packages libxml2.x86_64 2.9.13-5.el9_3 @baseos libxml2-devel.x86_64 2.9.13-5.el9_3 @appstream mingw64-libxml2.noarch 2.9.14-1.el9 @epel python3-libxml2.x86_64 2.9.13-5.el9_3 @baseos Best regards Roberto
iirc LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES is something i added to the bundled libxml2 to appease Solaris ld some 15 years ago... but TDF releases should use the system libxml2 on Linux, so it should never use that patched map file and it's entirely unclear how it can have this dependency?
the same problem happens on CentOS 7 (Linux pclab3.pd.infn.it 3.10.0-1160.108.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jan 25 16:17:31 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
Tried release 24.2.1.1, still the same problem....
To make sure: are you taking about TDF provided builds? If so, those do ship libxml2 and both soffice.bin as well as libraptor individually are supposed to be using that version: $ ldd /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin |grep xml2 libxml2.so.2 => /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007f96440a5000) $ ldd /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libraptor2-lo.so.0 |grep xml2 libxml2.so.2 => /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007fb4ab1f1000) it's provided in the libreoffice24.2-ure rpm that in turn is required by the libobasis24.2-core one. So what's the output of rpm -V libreoffice24.2-ure libobasis24.2-core do you have libxml2.so.2 in LO's program directory?
I have libxml2-devel installed and this clashes with LibreOffice one: ➤ ldd /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin |grep xml2 /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin: /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libmergedlo.so) /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/soffice.bin: /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/libraptor2-lo.so.0) libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007f2e37a77000) ➤ rpm -V libreoffice24.2-ure libobasis24.2-core no output and yes, libxml2.so is present in LibreOffice directory

well there i was thinking that we have not shipped libxml2.so.2 with LibreOffice on Linux for the last 10 years but i was completely wrong because i didn't look at distro-configs/LibreOfficeLinux.conf hope it should be fixed on master
*** Bug 159784 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I downloaded LibreOfficeDev_24.8.0.0.alpha0_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz and installed it. I then moved it to /opt/libreoffice/libreoffice24.8, and tried running: % /opt/libreoffice/libreoffice24.8/program/scalc /local/opt/libreoffice/libreoffice24.8/program/soffice.bin: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice/current/program/libmergedlo.so) /local/opt/libreoffice/libreoffice24.8/program/soffice.bin: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' not found (required by /opt/libreoffice/current/program/libraptor2-lo.so.0)
Revision... I fixed LD_LIBRARY_PATH so it includes /opt/libreoffice24.2/program/ and now it works! Yay!
Success was premature... When I run scalc or swriter, I get: The application cannot be started. The component manager is not available. ("Cannot open uno ini file:///lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/unorc at ./cppuhelper/source/defaultbootstrap.cxx:53") warn:desktop:228335:228335:/home/tdf/lode/jenkins/workspace/lo_gerrit/tb/src_master/desktop/source/app/crashreport.cxx:61: minidump generated: /tmp/91944bee-e432-41d9-664d3ba0-374c3ed7.dmp I have no idea what /home/tdf is. It's not on my system. I moved ~/.config/libreoffice to a backup folder. If I unsetenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it gets a bit better. scalc opens, but the following errors appear in the Console: % scalc warn:unotools.misc:229483:229483:unotools/source/misc/mediadescriptor.cxx:372: url: 'private:factory/scalc' com.sun.star.ucb.ContentCreationException message: "No Content Provider available for URL: private:factory/scalc at /home/tdf/lode/jenkins/workspace/lo_gerrit/tb/src_master/ucbhelper/source/client/content.cxx:208" eError: (com.sun.star.ucb.ContentCreationError) NO_CONTENT_PROVIDER warn:vcl.builder:229483:229483:vcl/source/window/builder.cxx:3496: probably need to implement NotebookBarAddonsMenuMergePoint warn:vcl:229483:229483:vcl/source/image/ImplImage.cxx:93: Failed to load scaled image from cmd/sc_insertsparkline.png at 1 warn:vcl:229483:229483:vcl/source/image/ImplImage.cxx:117: Failed to load stock icon cmd/sc_insertsparkline.png warn:vcl:229483:229483:vcl/source/window/builder.cxx:3664: priority set for not supported item warn:vcl.builder:229483:229483:vcl/source/window/builder.cxx:3858: unknown packing: tab-fill warn:vcl.schedule:229483:229483:vcl/source/app/scheduler.cxx:610: Stop the task before changing the priority, as it will just change after the task was scheduled with the old prio!
