Hi,

LibreOffice cannot open hyperlinks on Guix System.  This is because it
attempts to invoke /usr/bin/xdg-open, which does not exist.  For
example, if you launch "libreoffice" on the command line and then
attempt to open a hyperlink via Control + Left Click in Calc, you'll get
the following message:

  sh: /usr/bin/xdg-open: No such file or directory

I have a fix and will post it in a moment.

I've committed this to the master branch as
