I am very sorry Megver83. I was trying to be cheerful, but I can see how 
useless my e-mail was.

LibreOffice keeps freezing my whole system.
- I removed the -fresh package and deleted ~/.config/libreoffice.
- I could not reinstall, because pacman could not find a package for it 
(neither still nor fresh).
- I looked for it on www.parabola.nu/packages, and they were both 
missing for x86_64

That's when I decided to contact the list. I found a package on Arch, 
and reinstalled, but it kept crashing. I looked around, and there seems 
to be a long story about it crashing in Arch.

I downloaded Abiword, and I could open the documents that I needed, but 
the window flickers. I am wondering if this has to do with systemD, the 
files I needed (sxw) or the relationship between my computer and 
Parabola (since I cannot boot with linux-libre; I use linux-libre-lts).

In any case, I see that the packages have been uploaded, and I 
reinstalled libreoffice-still. I will wait until I have to turn off my 
computer to try opening the file again (in case it hangs).

In the mean time, is there any recommendation which does not include KDE 
to open ODS, DOCX, ODT, SXW other than Abiword and LibreOffice?

Finally, I want to express my gratitude and admiration for the work that 
everyone in the free software community does.
