LibreOffice Broken Again and Doesn't Start After Update:

I thought, that the issue with LO was solved and it would never ever happen again.

"Component cannot be loaded, possibly broken or incomplete installation. Full error message:

loading component library <file:///usr/lib/libreoffice/program/../program/libswlo.so> failed at /build/libreoffice-fresh/src/libreoffice-7.6.0.3/cppuhelper/source/shlib.cxx:312."

$ pacman -Qs libreoffice-fresh:

local/libreoffice-fresh 7.6.0-1

Partial Solution:
1. Remove your old  libreoffice-fresh-"your_local_language"
2. Update STUCK liborcus with $ pacman Syyu
3. Install libreoffice-fresh-"your_local_language"

Now going to Help -> About Libre Office  shows the following:
Version: 7.06.3
Misc: 7.6.0-1 (like in pacman)

Except the $ sudo pacman -Syyu gives:
libreoffice-fresh-"my_locale": local (7.6.0-1) is newer than universe (7.5.4-1)

Wander about the naming convention that do not match? What gives?

It should all go smoothly just with Syu. What did just happened? Got on my nevrves again.

P.S. I wander if it happenes with zypper on Tumbleweed. Unfortunately I don't have a separate computer to test if for a year.

I just updated libreoffice-still (7.5.5-1 from universe), and while e.g. lowriter works, localc fails to start with a similar message:

"Component cannot be loaded, possibly broken or incomplete installation.
Full error message:
loading component library <file:///usr/lib/libreoffice/program/../program/libsclo.so> failed at /build/libreoffice-still/src/libreoffice-7.5.5.2/cppuhelper/source/shlib.cxx:312."

The file, /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libsclo.so, is there.

It seems Arch's extra has a 7.5.5-2 out.

libreoffice has 2 unique abillities; it can drive maintainers insane, and even whole build servers to go hang themselves

Still, libreoffice-fresh updates and works just fine in a fully updated test vm.
Could it be liborcus and maybe other related packages were not updated because of an ignorepkg in pacman.conf?

The language packs for libreoffice-fresh 7.6.0 will be added soon.

Updated libreoffice-still 7.5.5.2 is building as we speak.
