LibreOffice 25.2 AppImage cannot run because of no libxml2 dependency

[lobaluna]

The libxml2 library is already installed. There is no rest package in my system.

What should I do?

$ ./LibreOffice-fresh.standard-x86_64.AppImage 
libreoffice25.2: error while loading shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ sudo pacman -Ss libxml2

There is no problem with appimage LibO 24.8.

There is nothing you can do to fix it, you can only workaround.
Use the old appimage. Or write the developer to fix the new one not to rely on system libraries assuming ubuntu and instead to include everything like it is supposed to be in the first place.
Or use flatpak. Or the repo version. Or aur. Your choice.

You can try installing libxml2-legacy.

EDIT:

Just realised it said appimage, so I doubt it’ll work.

[lobaluna]

On the contrary. That’s the solution. Thank you very much, specially for truly trying to help.
