libreoffice-kf5 copr

[Rex Dieter]

I was able to get f29/f28 builds going for initial/experimental gtk3-kde5 
support built in libreoffice-6.1.x, 
https:://bugzilla.redhat.com/1647233

here's the fruits of that labor,

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/rdieter/libreoffice-kf5/

My initial testing was good, just verified that kf5-based filepicker shows 
when saving  a file if libreoffice-kf5 package is installed and run from 
within a plasma session.

Thanks!

Enabling the copr and trying to do a dnf update results in following error:

 Problem 1: package libreoffice-gtk2-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64 requires
libreoffice-core(x86-64) = 1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29, but none of the providers
can be installed
  - cannot install both libreoffice-core-1:6.1.2.1-5.fc29.1.kf5.x86_64
and libreoffice-core-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
  - cannot install both libreoffice-core-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64 and
libreoffice-core-1:6.1.2.1-5.fc29.1.kf5.x86_64
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package
libreoffice-gtk2-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package
libreoffice-core-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
 Problem 2: problem with installed package
libreoffice-gtk2-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
  - package libreoffice-gtk2-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64 requires
libreoffice-ure(x86-64) = 1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29, but none of the providers
can be installed
  - cannot install both libreoffice-ure-1:6.1.2.1-5.fc29.1.kf5.x86_64
and libreoffice-ure-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
  - cannot install both libreoffice-ure-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64 and
libreoffice-ure-1:6.1.2.1-5.fc29.1.kf5.x86_64
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package
libreoffice-ure-1:6.1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64

I assume I need to remove libreoffice-{core,gtk2,ure} first and then
do a fresh install?

Did so and the KF5 filepicker seems to work fine!

As far as I know, the -gtk2 subpkg has been deprecated, and it should get 
removed automatically on upgrades.  Maybe there's something wrong with that.  
I'll take a closer look, and if so, it's ultimately a bug in libreoffice 
(rawhide) packaging.

Yeah, I found:
Obsoletes: libreoffice-gtk2 < 1:6.1.2.1-3
which really needed to be:
Obsoletes: libreoffice-gtk2 < 1:6.1.2.1-4
(or higher)

and looks like it was already reported and fixed in rawhide,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1651469

new build on the way.
