LibreOffice Broken Packages

I performed the system update today and now LibreOffice has disappeared from my system. I tried reinstalling but it fails with a broken packages error that I cannot fix. Any ideas?

Had already tried this but I still get the same broken packages error trying to reinstall LibreOffice.

Re: LibreOffice Broken Packages

Just as an addition, I noticed the updater packages included a kernel upgrade so don't know if this is the reason, but prior to that I had LibreOffice installed and fully functional without problems.

I hope there is a resolution to this because I need to work with .odt files and the alternative WPS Office will not open these and it is totally impractical for me to convert everything to a different format.

Run in terminal and put output here:
$ qrepolist
$ sudo sh /usr/share/apps/q4os_system/bin/qapt_fix.sh

Re: LibreOffice Broken Packages

I just checked my Libre Office and it is all ok (Version 5.0.5.2) on 64bit system, are you running a custom LO installation by any chance?

Re: LibreOffice Broken Packages

I haven't had any issues with package updater except for when dist-upgrade is required. Maybe I'm just lucky
