Public bug reported:

Libreoffice doesn't open or work

launching from terminal errors out with following error:
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: 
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so: undefined symbol: 
hb_graphite2_face_get_gr_face

A quick google search gave solution to remove 
/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libharfbuzz.so.0, which works although 
temporarily
the package "libharfbuzz0b" reinstalls this lib and it causes same error again

Also the package libharfbuzz0b is used by other packages so cant be
removed from apt directly, leading to no permanent solution to this
problem
