This is likely due to your upgrade and having old SBo packages that goffice
links to that are linking to old Slackware files.

This is why it's typically recommended to rebuild all 3rd-party
applications when you upgrade the distro. There's so much dynamic linking
that goes on that it can be a pain to track it down. I'd get a list of all
packages based on the responses in your other email thread and the run
"slackpkg clean-system" to clear it all out and rebuild from scratch. It'll
take time now but will likely save you a lot more time in the future from
trying to figure out why things aren't compiling when they seem like they
should.
