Have just installed 4.0Beta1-11 AMD64 Debs into LMDE 64 bit. Started Writer, go to help-> About, application disappears. Start again through LODev4.0, help about works, Starting Writer from there works, as does Help About in that instance of Writer. Close all Libreoffice. Start again from Libreoffice Writer, go to Help-About = CRASH. After cancelling every Document Recovery, the Help About works. From Fresh start it fails.
Same issue occurs in Calc, NOT Draw NOT Impress, didn't try Base.
LO4 is noticeably faster than the previous version 3.54 that I had on this system; very snappy response! :D
If this bug is true, it's a blocker. Verifying.........
Not reproducible with Version 4.0.0.0.beta1 (Build ID: 87906242e87d3ddb2ba9827818f2d1416d80cc7)

Still fails after reinstall; from terminal: /opt/lodev4.0/program/soffice.bin --writer click help-about, result: Segmentation fault Will download packages again...
Same fault after fresh download... will try another DE ( currently XFCE 4.8 )
Still faults in other DEs. FYI: PC is a Dell n7110 laptop; i5-8gb, with nVidia 540m running bumblebee. OS is LMDE 64bit fully updated. Any other information required?
I don't reproduce this on pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today (commit 634ee953f1d090871834f6bc53faafaa7b96b874) Onyx: could you try to retrieve a backtrace (see http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#How_to_get_a_backtrace_.28on_Linux.29)
@Julien Nabet: please advise where I can find the necessary debug packages for AMD64 DEB. "Install the libreoffice*-debuginfo packages (on Debian, Ubuntu and derivated, the package name is libreoffice-dbg)" otherwise, there is no gdbtrace.log created.
Onyx: I don't know if there's one (probably not). Anyway, it could help core devs.
I do not reproduce this crash with Version 4.0.0.0.beta2+ (Build ID: d3b7a2bfe2a95153134f340c5a13a467de95a0d) under Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64 @reporter: Please could you try again with a daily build or the next beta2 ? http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/deb/x86_64/ Best regards. JBF
Onyx: could you try to retrieve a strace file? (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#How_to_get_a_strace_log_.28on_Linux.29)

JBF Have just installed and tested Beta2, problem is gone. Mark as fixed.
Since there's no specific fix about this, put WFM.
