Hi - I'm in a Debian9 (stretch) environment where dpkg -l *gtk* command shows
these three entries for gtk3. (there are entries for gtk2 as well)
libgtk-3-0:amd64 3.22.11-1 - GTK+ graphical user interface library
libgtk-3-bin 3.22.11-1 - programs for GTK+ GUI library
libgtk-3-common 3.22.11-1 - common files for the GTK+ GUI library
Not sure where to go from here other than to confirm Patrick Addy's bug report
that LibreOffice CALC pivot tables have not worked (for me) for several
months/releases.
I have worked around it by using the older version 5.x or now, 6.0.6.2 as
noted in <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=125767#c11">Comment #11</a>. Something in LibreOffice changed that made drag & drop
non-functional. I don't know if it is related to gtk. My linux environment
hasn't changed. The problem surfaced with a LibreOffice update, and I can go
back to an older LibreOffice version to get functional pivot tables.
Lastly, I *do* have ver 6.2.2 of LibreOffice installed from .deb files. Pivot
Tables don't work. I have not un-installed it. I've been experimenting with
the AppImages as noted in <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=125767#c11">Comment #11</a>.
If you have any thoughts on how I might try to force a change in gtk3 or
something else to make drag & drop work with current versions of LibreOffice,
I'm all ears. As are other users of Google Chromebooks that use Linux apps.
One test I could run is try an AppImage that HAS gtk3 within the AppImage. That
might offer insight as to whether gtk3 is the culprit or not.</pre>
