New comment by haunma on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/14581#issuecomment-533408317 Comment: I did some more experimenting, and it seems libreoffice-writer is critical. I couldn't get libreoffice to start up without it. (I had already added libreoffice-fonts besides my language pack, libreoffice-common, and libreoffice-calc. Not sure if the fonts are required or not.) Anyway, I don't mind having writer for the times I want to open up Word docs. Probably better than my old standby, antiword.
