Package: libreoffice-kf5 Severity: grave Dear Rene, everybody,
we run Debian bookworm KDE plasma clients with home directories mounted from an SMB share. From time to time, users reported that libreoffice documents have disappeared completely when closing libreoffice. We were now able to reproduce the issue on both, the current bookworm and bookworm-backports version of libreoffice. Mount an SMB share. I use the following in fstab: //SHARE/DIR /media/share cifs user,nobrl,user=USER,password=PASS 0 0 Open/create an ODT document, write some text, save the file and check it's appearance on the share. Then click Insert → Image and (perhaps with the image still selected in the document) close libreoffice. The file disappears on the share. This is almost always reproducible (we tested multiple SMB servers) if not, just open the file again, insert another image, Ctrl-S, Ctrl-Q, the file is gone! If 'nobrl' is removed from the mount options (but we need it for other programs to work properly), instead of the file disappearing, a popup shows: Error saving the document Untitled 1: Error creating object. Could not create backup copy. This looks like already reported upstream [1]. For now, we traced the issue back to libreoffice-kf5. If this package is removed, neither the document disappears on closing libreoffice nor the popup is shown when 'nobrl' is removed from the mount options. It looks a bit like the issue found in [2]. Thanks for maintaining libreoffice, best regards, Andi [1] https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160315 [2] https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55004#c56
