Description Rick Davis 2020-07-07 17:32:28 UTC
Running LibreOffice on Chromebook Pixelbook -eve- Crostini which is the Linux beta container running buster.  Installed LibreOffice from debian buster-backports.
Open Libreoffice.  From menu picks select "about" the cursor will be within the boundaries of the dialog box.  Slowly move the cursor across the dialog box border.  The program will immediately terminate This problem did not exist under debian stretch and Libreoffice 5.x

I also filed this as a bug with Chrome OS / Linux beta / crostini.  This is what they found so far:

Status: Started (was: Unconfirmed)
Owner: hollingum@google.com

this also occurs v 6.1.5.2

tbh i'm not sure who the culprit is here but libreoffice is trying to configure a window that it never properly registered with the x server (sommelier doesnt like this and asserts)

Hi, could you try with newer versions?
LibreOffice version are as today: 6.3.6 and 7.0.1
Comment 3 Rick Davis 2020-09-19 15:20:22 UTC
Issue resolved in Crostini (Chromebook Linux Beta.  Issue was with interface:
"vm_tools: sommelier: Do not assert that configure windows are ours.It seems libreoffice is sending configure requests for windows that the
x server never mapped."

Running 6.4.5.2 From Buster backports.
