[...]
Setting up libreoffice-writer (1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4) ...
Setting up libreoffice-base (1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4) ...
Setting up libreoffice-report-builder-bin (1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4) ...
Setting up libreoffice-report-builder (1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4) ...
Setting up libreoffice-help-en-us (1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.24-11+deb9u3) ...
