Description Keith Henderson Jr 2015-09-10 22:16:08 UTC 
Libreoffice crashes whenever I move focus away from the application onto a another and then middle-click.

At first I assumed this bug was related to java, (openjdk would spit out an error on the terminal,) but even after disabling java features via the options menu, Libreoffice would still crash.

Here's a video of the crash: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF14ZXexH6Q

After some testing, I found that this bug is related to the gtk3 ui; crashing doesn't happen with the qt interface.

I should also mention I'm using i3 window manager, and arch linux.

Hi Keith,

Unfortunately it hasn't been possible for me to reproduce the crash. If possible, please follow the instructions provided at this link < https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/Debug_Information#GNU.2FLinux >. and submit a backtrace. That way a developer can look into the underlying reason of the crash.

Can't reproduce this on current master (6afa5614463fbc952d5a983c813d587edbc82fac).
Needs testing with 5.0 branch
Comment 4 Maxim Monastirsky 2015-09-21 13:12:03 UTC 
Most likely related to Bug 93887 and/or Bug 94013 (both should be fixed for 5.0.3). But there is no way to know for sure without a backtrace.

gdb trace log

Well, Soffice --backtrace crashes whenever I try to open/create a document, so I'm not able to reproduce the middle-click problem via soffice.

Here's the gdb.log up until the crash.

I was able to get a strace log however.

I recently upgraded to the latest version of Libreoffice, and this bug no longer affects me. Thanks for the patch!

Since we don't have a commit fixing this problem, WORKSFORME is the correct state. Thanks for the update Keith!
