I've several times had Libre Office block software updates that require restarts, even after being force quit. One shouldn't have to force quit ever, anyway, but something is "reawakening" Libre Office and blocking restart. Tedious! TIA!
Which version of LibO and OS X are you using? Set to NEEDINFO. Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.
2 things you can do: 1) Rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Mac_OS_X). Of course it implies doing the customization again if any, reinstall extensions. 2) Give a try to last stable LO version 5.1.4
@MK Bretsch : we need more information on the exact situation. Are you referring to : 1) LibreOffice version updates ? 2) LibreOffice extension updates ? 3) OSX System updates ? It is not entirely clear from your post which one you mean. I suspect number 3. We would need precise and detailed circumstances of when such a situation arises, and how to reproduce it in a systematic way. There are known instances where a file lock can be obtained on a file by LibreOffice, and this file lock is then not released correctly by LibreOffice, even after a forced kill, but you would need to verify that such is the case on your machine with a latest production release of LibreOffice and report back here.
