Nice idea, so basically

diff --git a/sysui/desktop/share/create_tree.sh b/sysui/desktop/share/create_tree.sh

in LO.

Did you rebuild "just" the typelib with what you pasted or did a complete
"clean" LO build?
No idea whether that works given the library isn't installed yet of course.
(My gir knowledge right now is a bit limited, even though I maintain two
packsages building gir12.-* ;))

But Michael has a point, when the one is public the other one should too,
so this symlink (I don't really want to move it completely) is the more easier
and less intrusive solution. And that one is already committed (see [1]) and
matches what other distros do (Fedora mv's it, though)

OTOH, that would make the Conflicts (to avoid the crash) done in [2] make it
more clear, one then could Conflicts: gir1.2-lokdocview-0.1 (<= 1:5.1.1-1)
instead of the (indirect) libreoffice-gtk3.

Rene
