Manjaro Plasma busted - Chief - 11-12-2022

I have noted that Evolution crashed and also Libreoffice on Manjaro Plasma.
I was able to reinstall Evolution but Libreoffice remains busted, can't install.
I also noted numerous issues with updating in the terminal. After several tries
I was able to update. However Libreoffice remains busted and that is essential.

I couldn't get Libra Office to install at all.  The Discover (GUI package manager on the Pine Phone) keeps telling me "the PackageKit Daemon has crashed" almost anytime I try to download something. pacman won't execute to update or install, I assume because Discover is running.
ug.

There are usually problems like this with Plasma regardless of distro. I'm guessing that an update will fix it.
However I installed Manjaro Phosh and it appears to be working fine. The only Plasma that seems to work well
in my opinion is Postmarket.
Edit: Also once you have sorted the device out and it works - don't update it. Just leave it as is and you may have the best overall luck.
