Problem description: I'm running Linux Mint Petra with KDE, and just recently pulled the latest libreoffice release (4.2.3.3 420m0(Build:3)). Now when I launch any Libreoffice application from the launcher, it freezes. The issue seems to be with the %U flag in the command to run libreoffice. Running "libreoffice" from command line works fine; running "libreoffice %U" throws the error "/current/directory/%U does not exist" (where /current/directory/ is wherever I happen to type the command). If I remove the "%U" from my launcher shortcut, the program opens fine again. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open console 2. Launch any libreoffice application with the %U option Current behavior: Libreoffice freezes and/or crashes when launched with the %U option Expected behavior: Launches normally PS: I couldn't find the exact versions under the dropdown options, so chose as close as I could find. Operating System: Linux (Other) Version: 4.2.3.1 rc
TESTING with LO 4.2.7-0ubuntu + Ubuntu 14.04 (AMD64) (In reply to jason.wallace from comment #0) > Steps to reproduce: > 1. Open console > 2. Launch any libreoffice application with the %U option What's the %U option? > Current behavior: > Libreoffice freezes and/or crashes when launched with the %U option FWIW, LibreOffice does seem to freeze/hang if one runs 'libreoffice %U'. Please change the status back to UNCONFIRMED after you explain the intended purpose of the %U switch. Status -> NEEDINFO
Don't type '%U', write *the URL* of the document you want to open. Report back.
