Thanks for the extensive testing, but my experience was related in particular to the macOS appstore installation of LO which, as I learned in a blog post rather than on the appstore description of the product, doesn't include any Java functionality (I didn't realize that the extensions I was testing relied on Java). Thus, even with a JDK installed, and which works for LibreOffice downloads for macOS (currently, I have Eclipse Adoptium 18, with LO7412 macOS Arm), that JDK will be of no use to the Mac Appstore download of LO. If Java is the problem, at the very least, the Mac Appstore version of LO should decline to install any extension that requires Java, or else fail gracefully, with a corresponding useful message. It shouldn't install it, ask to restart, and then crash. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
