Valentina, the version field is the oldest version afected by the bug, NOT the newest version. In this case is 6.4.2.
Comment 3 Julien Nabet 2022-06-23 19:40:19 UTC
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I don't reproduce this.
Idem with LO Debian testing package 7.3.4.2

Could someone give a try with a recent LO version?
Comment 4 Ettore Atalan 2022-06-23 20:18:40 UTC
With LibreOffice 7.3.4 I can still reproduce the problem.

To be more precise, I installed Samba and configured a Samba share on my Linux desktop.
I added a directory in it.

I don't use File/Open... but File/Open Remote... (even if the file is local, it's on a network share).
First time, I added a File service, Windows share with host = localhost + all the other params.
No pb here.

Now, if I just use File/Open... and use "Other Locations", I can see the network share but when clicking on it, I got:
"Could not read the content of <network share name>
It's not a directory".

Finally, if I choose File/Open Remote... (after I declared Samba network share) and close it directly then choose File/Open..., there's a new entry on left panel called "<network share name> on localhost" and I can access documents even the ones in subdir.

(BTW, I also use gtk3)

Anyway, I put back to NEW since I don't have more questions.
