I submitted a bug report on the LO Flatpak GitHub site. This is the
error message I get when running LO from the terminal:

/app/libreoffice/program/../program/senddoc: line 277:
/usr/bin/evolution: No such file or directory.

I have no idea how to make this program available to LO. Like I
mentioned above, if I knew how to add permissions like what's setup for
the Calibre Ebook Viewer, then this would probably not be an issue.
