Dear Mr. Penalver et al., Thanks for looking into this. I'm sorry I was not able to submit a bug report. As mentioned in the text of my report, I did follow the instructions you provided by email but was unable to generate a bug report. Is there any way I can work around the program not generating a bug report, beyond the instructions given? Thanks. -Jacob

I was informed to also submit a bug report and took the following additional steps at command line entered: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-dbg uno-libs3-dbg ure-dbg && sudo service apport start force_start=1 checked to make sure apport was enabled, it was duplicated the error looked in the folder /var/crash There does not seem to be a bug report that gets generated in response to this crash. However, there is another bug report that seems to get generated when libreoffice crashes for other, more sporadic reasons. I restarted the computer. Re crashed libreoffice. Still no new error message. So apparently libreoffice or apport is not regestering this as a crash. Is there a work-around? My original description of the problem is as follows: Every time I select Outline, Notes or Handout view modes, either from the tabs over the slide or the view menu, libreoffice immediiately closes. If I am running from the terminal I get the following error message, repeated a number of times.
