Description Brian Schonecker 2013-04-24 14:08:59 UTC
When installing Libre Office on a minimal system, the install of libreoffice4.0 doesn't check for dependencies for 'soffice.bin'.

In my case, I want to run 'soffice.bin' headless for conversion of files to PDF.  This is a minimal system with no X11 installed.
[localuser@test-ooo01 ~]$ sudo /bin/bash
[root@test-ooo01 localuser]# yum -y install /opt/libreoffice4.0/program/soffice.bin

Hi Brian,

Are you using packages directly from the LibreOffice project, or from some other source? I believe that our rpm packages include full dependencies in the spec file, but I'll look into this.

It would be nice to have the bug retested on a newer LibO version (4.3.2.2 is out) than the version reported in the original report to know that the bug is still present -- sometimes a bug is inadvertently fixed over time and just never
closed.

If you have time please do the following:
1) Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of
LibreOffice 
2) If it is present please leave a comment telling us what version of
LibreOffice and your operating system.
3) If it is NOT present please set the bug to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a
short comment telling us your version and Operating System

Please DO NOT
1) Update the version field
2) Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
3) Set the bug to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that
is not appropriate in this case)
