I did also post the message to the Fedora List, but assumed since 
Libre Office is the one that makes the product, they would probable 
know more about it the Fedora Does. They must have made some 
change that causes this error to exist. Did get a reply on Fedora 
Lists that other distro's are also having messages come up. 

So, rather than placing blame on either side or sides, perhaps the 
issue can be identified and resolved for all distributions.
