--- Comment #1 from alucardn...@gmail.com ---
Ok, so as a comment on this I'd like to quote what one of the devs on Solus
told me:

"The issue with LibreOffice desktop files being owned as root is the result of
LibreOffice actually having a build system which installs the desktop files
into the completely incorrect location, which is
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/xdg, then symlinking to /usr/share/applications/. As
a result, the desktop file on the desktop is a symlink to that xdg directory,
which is owned by root. The correct procedures would be:

File a bug upstream to have the LO desktop files be installed into the correct
directory instead of symlinking"

I haven't been on linux in quite a few years so I don't know how right he is,
but since he's a member of the core team of an up-and-coming OS I'll take him
at his word for now and relay the information he's given me to people that
probably do know if he's right or not.
