+Old news, but LibreOffice no longer supported by RedHat.  Get the latest LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/
+Unpack the tar and verify you see individual RPMs.  Then:
+  dnf localinstall *.rpm
+You can then start an application like this:
+  libreoffice24.8 --calc test.csv
+Make a .bashrc alias for shortcuts.
