Hello,
on hppa and powerpc, the libreoffice package fails due to a failing smoketest
[1]:
[_RUN_____] (anonymous namespace)::Test::test
./unotest/source/cpp/officeconnection.cxx:77:(anonymous namespace)::Test::test

After some investigation and discussions with upstream [2], I figured out that
the problem
is the missing wrapper script instdir/program/soffice for the soffice.bin
binary. This script
is normally generated from "desktop/scripts/soffice.sh via makefile targets in
desktop/
CustomTarget_sofice.mk and desktop/Package_soffice_sh.mk" (quoting Stephan
Bergmann from [3]).
I therefore copied the script manually and rerun the smoketest which
immediately succeeded:
glaubitz@perotto:~/loffice/libreoffice-26.2.0~beta1$ cp -av
desktop/scripts/soffice.sh instdir/program/soffice
'desktop/scripts/soffice.sh' -> 'instdir/program/soffice'

Thus, we need to figure out why the build doesn't actually generated the
wrapper script
for hppa, powerpc (and probably m68k) in order to fix the smokeest on these
targets.
