Bug#865866: libreoffice-writer crash on startup Debian 9 i386 arch
Hi folks, here is another trick: 1. Just install linux-image-4.9.0-0-*** from backports. 2. Then boot with it, and libreoffice will start. 3. Now reboot and start with the actual kernel i.e. 4.11-** 4. Do NOT delete ~/.config/libreoffice!!! 5. Voila, libreoffice is starting again with the latest kernel. 6. Hint: backup ~/.config/libreoffice Happy hacking! Best Hans

Hi, just FYI: latest version of libreoffice in debian/testing is also still crashing. Thought, you should be informed. Best Hans
Bug#865866: libreoffice-writer crash on startup Debian 9 i386 arch
Hi folks, I think, and everyone might agree to it, that downgrading to an old kernel with its security holes and other already fixed stuff is IMO a very bad and dumb idea! Downgrading a kernel for a single app is always the most wrong policy. You should note, that the last running libreoffice version was one version below the actual version in debian/stable. And note, too, that it ran on linux-image-4.11-XXX, the latest kernel version in debian/testing on an i386 system. Mine is an EEEPC 1005HGO. So. the better solution is, for the time, libreoffice is not fixed, use an alternative. I suggest Abiword, as it is most compatible to libreoffice and can read and write most documents formats very well (better than calibre, sorry guys). I suppose, the developer team is working hard at the moment on libreoffice, to get it fixed. We should give them the time, and hope the best. For me, using Abiword with the latest kernel is the better solution! Best Hans

Hi Rene, dated libreoffice up this morning, but no success. I deletd ~/.config/libreoffice and got this error message: *user@protheus7*:*~*$ libreoffice *user@protheus7*:*~*$ Hope, this helps. Best Hans
Bug#865866: libreoffice-writer crash on startup Debian 9 i386 arch
Hi Rene, maybe you should know, that libreoffice-writer ran fine since my last update, which was on 20th july 2017. I am running debian/testing, i386. And I do almost any day an upgrade. No kernel update! So, maybe it helps, when you see, which packages were updated. This is the list: Install: firebird3.0-server-core:i386 (3.0.2.32703.ds4-4, automatic), libgltf-0.1-1:i386 (0.1.0-2, automatic), libzmf-0.0-0:i386 (0.0.1-4, auto After this update, libreoffice won't start any more. As someone pointed me to java, I downgraded openjdk with no success. Maybe this might help to look, what might have changed. Best regards Hans

Interesting.

You can also do that on amd64. That is no reason, imho. But I guess I need to create a i386 VM... Regards, Rene

Works for me on "normal" stretch. Though I didn't yet reboot for the latest kernel upgrade which causes Java stuff to break. See e.g. also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303 Do you have any "interesting" (Java) extensions installed or was this a clean system? I ask because you are french and probably also have installed the questionable extension? Does downgrading the kernel from security to that one in stable (or upgrading it to the kernel from https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303#94 work? Regards, Rene P.S.: > -- System Information: > Debian Release: 9.0 > APT prefers stable > APT policy: (500, 'stable') > Architecture: i386 (i686) Oh my, you installed a fresh system and STILL installed i386? What for? "Of course" the new kernel packaged linked above have only _amd64 built Regards, Rene
