due to another problem in libreoffice (no gallery, when dmaths is installed), I
moved ~/.config/libreoffice out of the way, to get a fresh configuration.
DO NOT DO THIS except you have a backup available!
Actually there are times when removing ~/.config/libreoffice is exactly what
you need to do.
The LO installer is rather brain dead so when you get reported file missing
errors on LO start up, apt-get remove libreoffice && apt-get install libreoffice
does not fix the problem.
The procedure that worked for me was:
apt-get remove libreoffice
rm -rf ~/.config/libreoffice
apt-get install libreoffice
all as root of course.
There may have been a better way to do this job but the above did work.
Cheers Bob
