--- Comment #8 from AtesComp <atescomp at gmail.com> ---
System:
* KDE Plasma
* X11
* Qt version: 5.9.5 (current for Kubuntu 18.04)

I expect, as you say, this is the issue and needs Qt 5.10+.

NOTE: I'm reluctant to upgrade at the moment due to possible package
dependencies and breakage issues.

ALSO: The Libreoffice GTK packages were not installed.  My prior tests were
apparently defaulting back to KDE5.  Maybe there should be a warning message
when VCL is set to one option (or the "SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN" environment variable
is set) and Libreoffice decides to use some other VCL?

Sorry, I was just too quick to get the testing done without checking all the
other elements.  As such, I retested with the proper Libreoffice packages
installed: libreoffice-gtk2, libreoffice-gtk3.

--------------------
Test 1:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen soffice

Version: 6.2.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.2.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: x11; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This seems to work!  Apparently, one or both of the GTK packages installed
fixes the "gen" failure in comment 3.

--------------------
Test 2:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk soffice

Version: 6.2.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.2.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This seems to work!

--------------------
Test 3:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 soffice

Version: 6.2.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.2.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This seems to work!

--------------------
Test 4:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=kde5 soffice

Version: 6.2.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.2.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: kde5; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This fails, of course, as expected!

--------------------

@Michael Weghorn: Thanks for the reality check!!!

However, I'm not sure why the local installs of:
* Libreoffice 6.2.3
* Libreoffice 6.3.0
failed when using the "SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3" setting.  I would expect the
package installs for these.

Rerunning...

--------------------
Test 5:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 opt/libreofficedev6.2/program/soffice

Version: 6.2.3.0.0+
Build ID: e019441cb0507fd533fe7114c6a1ea17e2c10aa6
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: GL; VCL: gtk3; 
TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64 at 86-TDF, Branch:libreoffice-6-2, Time:
2019-03-29_08:58:31
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This seems to work!

--------------------
Test 6:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk opt/libreofficedev6.2/program/soffice

Version: 6.2.3.0.0+
Build ID: e019441cb0507fd533fe7114c6a1ea17e2c10aa6
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: GL; VCL: gtk2; 
TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64 at 86-TDF, Branch:libreoffice-6-2, Time:
2019-03-29_08:58:31
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

This had a weird dark color or theme problem that made it impossible to see
menus and buttons.  I just got the version above.

--------------------
Test 7:
--------------------
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen opt/libreofficedev6.2/program/soffice

This would not run.  It looked like Libreoffice was starting, but then kicked
back to the prompt without any error message.
