If you are reporting issues with the Fedora packages to the LibreOffice package 
maintainers in Fedora, do you have a BZ for the ticket you filed?  This 
absolutely should be tracked as part of Fedora updates.  If you filed a bug 
with upstream LibreOffice about Fedora packaging issues, I am not surprised 
they ignored you.

This isn’t advice I would offer anyone.  There are very limited circumstances 
I’d ever suggest using the —nodeps parameter with rpm, and that’s for last 
ditch RPM database corruption or to fix interrupted transactions, it is never 
something involved in a regular package update or removal.  If you are using 
Fedora packages, you absolutely should never need this to update r remove 
LibreOffice.
