Description Galvatron 2013-07-26 10:50:57 UTC 
This is what happens after running "libreoffice --writer":


avaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Warning: failed to read path from javaldx
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: liblpsolve55.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I have the latest OpenJDK, instead of Oracle Java.
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.0.4 release

Are you using TDF builds or builds from the Ubuntu ppa?
Comment 2 Galvatron 2013-07-26 19:04:25 UTC 
PPA
Comment 3 Björn Michaelsen 2013-07-26 19:45:23 UTC 
tested again, worksforme (and about >16000 others who have downloaded that package, I guess).
Whats the output of:

find /usr/lib/libreoffice/program -name '*.so'|xargs ldd|grep solve

?

Also do you have any other fancy PPAs installed, that might disturb this?
Comment 4 Galvatron 2013-07-26 20:01:53 UTC 
I don't see any.


liblpsolve55.so => not found
Comment 5 Galvatron 2013-07-26 20:18:55 UTC 
Problem solved, as of now. In Ubuntu this lib is provided by Calc (and libreoffice-dbg, but it's a monster occupying over 2GB). Installing Calc is a temporary workaround.

lowering prio because of workaround, taking ...
Comment 7 Björn Michaelsen 2013-07-29 12:54:15 UTC 
resolving here, as it is a packaging bug, not one of libreoffice. Continue at:
