Hello Hans-Peter,

Thank you for reporting the bug. To be certain the reported issue is not related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and re-test?

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present

I am not sure that is a bug because one can think that the snap is preventing you to access data that you are not the owner.

> No problems with LO 2.5.xxx

LO 2.5 does not exist...

You should file a bug report against Ubuntu on https://bugs.launchpad.net to see if that is an expected behavior of snap installations. Then, please, report the result here.

Status set to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested
informations are provided.

Sorry but this bug tracker is not an helpdesk. You can ask for help on AskLibo : https://ask.libreoffice.org

Merci Jean-Baptiste pour tes efforts. J'ai changé l'installation de LO en repository-default et ca marche bien. Je ne veux plus expérimenter avec snap.
Bien à toi
