Installing Linux libraries manually

LibreOffice requires the following libraries to be installed on your system:

• libfontconfig
• libICE
• libSM
• libXrender
• libXext
• libXinerama
• libcups
• libGLU
• libcairo2
• libgl1-mesa-glx

On some Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, SUSE, and Red Hat, the SkyVault setup wizard will validate whether or not the required libraries are present. If the required libraries are missing, you will get a warning message. You can install them using your package manager from the command line.

If LibreOffice does not start up normally with SkyVault, test manually; for example, by running this startup script:

start ex.  
{installdir}/libreoffice/scripts/libreoffice_ctl.sh start 
status ex. {installdir} 
/libreoffice/scripts/libreoffice_ctl.sh status

If you receive errors that indicate that a library missing, work with your system administrator to add the missing library or its equivalent from your configured repositories.
