dnf search libreoffice shows that there is no package with that name in Rock repos. There is libreoffice-java.

Hello,
My question is:
why don’t work LanguageTool 6.4 in Libreoffice?

6

@Hanisch You realize that “don’t work” is not acceptable without any argumentation, yes?

What language tool 6.4? In Rock is libreoffice is version 7.6.3.2-1. This is what is in a default Rock Plasma (5) install today:

$ rpm -qa | grep libreoffice
libreoffice-help-en_US-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-style-breeze-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-common-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-draw-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-help-en_GB-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-l10n-en_GB-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-style-breeze_dark-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-kde5-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-impress-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-calc-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-math-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64
libreoffice-writer-7.6.3.2-1.x86_64

And user may install libreoffice-java if the wish. You have not told what is actually broken. There may be something about LibreOffice I do not know that I would find useful as I am learning Spanish.

Edit: More research: LO Language Tool

NOTE: Starting with LibreOffice 7.4, LanguageTool can be used from LibreOffice without this add-on. However, there are some reasons to use the extension:

That page show newest version of Language Tool is 6.4. My guess is the this is to old to work with current version of LibreOffice. If you want to find out for sure do an internet search (google). Also Language Tool Forum.

Language Tool is not a Libre Office software it is separate project.

I do not see an Linux software available there.

Hello,

I have installed the downloaded Language Tool from ~/Downloads/LanguageTool-6.4.oxt.

Then this was incorrect. Apologies. Good for other users to know that the tool is available and that it works.
