Did you install any LO specific extensions? For the test, could you rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile) and give it a new try? (assuming the "missing XINERAMA" message is an unrelated warning rather than the source of the crash; the crash appears due to an unhandled C++ exception in the file UCP, but hard to tell more from the available data; might indeed be a problem related to extensions) I tried again with only the pdf-import extension installed, no change. I downloaded 4.2.0.4 and it also gives the same error and crash with error code 134. I tried renaming .config/libreoffice/4/user and that also had no effect. Additional info, The Xinerama library I have installed, is 1.0.1, and was installed with xorg-7.0. Is there a minimum dependency required? Does LibO really need Xinerama? or is it just not checking what library version is installed, and trying to use it anyway? (In reply to comment #0) > LibreOffice 4.1.4.2 0a0440ccc0227ad9829de5f46be37cfb6edcf72 > on Linux version 2.6.27.33 (custom build based on Slackware 7.0) Does that mean some standards-deviating libstdc++.so.6/libgcc_s.so.1, maybe? (In which case you would need to build LibreOffice against your own toolchain.) (In reply to comment #3) > I tried again with only the pdf-import extension installed, no change. What pdf-import extension, obtained from where? (PDF import comes included in LO as a non-extension.) > I downloaded 4.2.0.4 and it also gives the same error and crash with error > code 134. i.e., SIGABRT, so presumably the same scenario ** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.2 or later) https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa Thank you for your help! -- The LibreOffice QA Team This NEW Message was generated on: 2015-05-02 Yea!
