Hello, This is call for test and help of LibreOffice 6.4 update. My WIP repository is at: https://github.com/lwhsu/freebsd-ports-libreoffice Now you can simply test this with ports' overlay feature by adding: OVERLAYS+=/path/to/freebsd-ports-libreoffice to /etc/make.conf Please note that the GTK2 UI backend, which is the default for <= 6.3, is removed since 6.4 and now the default is changed to GTK3. However, there is a (long standing) known issue of GTK3 UI backend, for example, drop down menus do not show the "down arrow" and unusable. Please see the comments starting from #21 of this ticket for the detail description and discussion: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=224288#c21 Please help fining the root cause of this GTK3 issue, in the mean while, you can start the LibreOffice with x11 UI backend by setting environment variable: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen Or enable the KF5 (was KDE5 option) option to change to KDE framework 5 UI backend, to test the other features work fine. Thanks, Li-Wen
