Thanks for info, but I'm just installing from the rpm files 
included in the libreoffice downloads, so not building 
anything from source? Not sure if perhaps they used a 
Fedora 35 key for the rpm that is not compatible with 
Fedora 34. I build kernels from source for my g4l project. 
Just strange that calc seems to fail, but others work. 
Something that some libreoffice developer might know.
