[SOLVED] Libreoffice does not start

I cannot start my libreoffice:

$ libreoffice
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.60: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ ldd /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin | grep libicu
	libicuuc.so.58 => /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libicuuc.so.58 (0x00007fb290ebf000)
	libicudata.so.58 => /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libicudata.so.58 (0x00007fb289635000)
	libicui18n.so.58 => /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libicui18n.so.58 (0x00007fb2868c0000)
	libicuuc.so.61 => /usr/lib/libicuuc.so.61 (0x00007fb280343000)
	libicuuc.so.60 => not found
	libicudata.so.60 => not found
	libicudata.so.61 => /usr/lib/libicudata.so.61 (0x00007fb279e39000)

$ pacman -Ss libreoffice | grep install                
extra/libcdr 0.1.4-3 [installed]
extra/libreoffice-still 5.4.6-1 [installed]
community/libreoffice-extension-texmaths 0.45-1 [installed]

$  pacman -Ss icu | grep install        
core/icu 61.1-1 [installed]

I tried to reinstall those package but I still got the same error.  Any advice?

Re: [SOLVED] Libreoffice does not start

Can you please use lddtree from pax-utils in place of ldd to identify what is referencing libicuuc.so.60 and libicudata.so.60

Re: [SOLVED] Libreoffice does not start

Thank you!  Problem solved.  I am using harfbuzz-icu-git which requires a re-compile.
