An 'strace -f calligra', showing calligra exiting at startup.

Unable to start calligra. It just exits with no error message at all.

An strace -f calligra results in (many Resource temporarily unavai
lable) messages, mostly around futex and recvfrom).

Attached is the strace log.

I am running Fedora release 27. I did a 'dnf insall calligra', then tried to run it.

I do not think I am running out of memory or VM, and everything else, big or small runs.

This is what was installed:

Comment 1 Shlomi Fish 2018-05-22 21:02:00 UTC 
I can reproduce this issue on fedora 28 and Mageia 7 x86-64. calligrasheets seems to start fine.
Comment 2 Anthony Fieroni 2019-06-04 20:22:05 UTC 
You mean not start at all?

> You mean not start at all?

Typing "calligra" on the konsole command prompt and pressing enter appears to do nothing at all and the next prompt returns. "calligra foo.ods" starts up libreoffice (often with the wrong path).
Comment 4 Anthony Fieroni 2019-06-05 11:03:40 UTC 
Please contact Fedora package maintainer, i can't tell what's wrong.
Comment 5 Christoph Feck 2019-06-05 20:00:58 UTC 
Please try to start Calligra Words or Calligra Sheets separately, depending on the type of document you want to view, edit, or create.

Well, it also happens on mageia v7.

I can also reproduce the problem on an ubuntu 18.04 x64 VM on jwm.
