--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
This was incorrectly reported by OP in Redmine as issue #2523 [1] which should
be closed (it is not an infrastructure or release engineering issue).

Commonly error 2502/2503 issues are a NTFS file system permissions issue on
Windows--and is not going to be the .msi packaging of LibreOffice. 

Simply LibreOffice should be installed as Administrator on Windows builds to
assure needed registry entries are made.

Several ways to elevate the Windows shell...

Probably the easiest: from Task Manager -> Kill Explorer.exe; from Task Manager
-> File "Create New Task" Explorer.exe, check "Create this task with
administrative privileges"

alternatively a Windows registry edit in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Msi.Package to add
an entry to "Run as Administrator" and avoid any FS permission issue.

Another way is to run Command Prompt/Powershell as Admin (from Win+X menu) and
then do command line install "msiexec.exe /i LibreOffice_6.0.3.2_Win_x64.msi"

And--if that still fails with 2502/2503 errors--check the existence and
permissions for C:\Windows\Temp folder, the Administrators group should have
FULL control of it.
