Yes, that is the most drastic approach :-) In most cases we hopefully
can avoid needing to take that step!

Many of the bibisect woes that we've encountered in the past have been
tracked back to interactions with other running instances of soffice
(often touching the same user profile). Things I would try include
- Shutting down all versions of Libre/Open Office
- Checking again ("ps aux|grep "office")
- Restarting the computer

To avoid these types of interactions in the future, I suggest using a
wrapper script (not checked-in, but located in the same directory as
the bibisect repo). Here's one I cooked up based on Miroslaw's
suggestions (I'm in the process of getting it added to the buildbot
repo):
