Well - the traces themselves are - but if you have a reproducible way to crash it, then this is enough usually. > Now the question is: > how can I have all the needed packages to produce useful bug report using > the manual installation from the LO website? There are not debug packages for the builds provided by TDF. The gdb/debug packages of your distro's version won't work with the builds downloaded from www.libreoffice.org. > In case the gdb packages are not included in the manual installation (in > case, why they are not included?), Size basically. And most users won't run it in a debugger to provide stacktraces... (Most downloads are from windows, since linux users can get LO from their repos anyway - for windows there's symbol server that can be used to debug LO, but no such thing exists for the linux builds) > how can I compile it without compile all > the office suite? That's not possible. You can compile only the interesting module with debug-information, but you still would need to compile all of LibreOffice to run it. > Oh, of course to jump from a stable release to unstable one (rawhide) just > to have the last LO makes no sense to me.

I'm not familiar with the package-db-site, but https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libreoffice lists 4.2.2 as "stable" for F20 - with one update pending to be approved to get to stable. At least that is my reading of it. - so you should have the latest released version available from the repos. There was a time where 4.2.3 RC1 was offered on the download-page by accident without having it explicitly selected - so if you have 4.2.3 installed, that is actually an RC, not a final version. ciao Christian _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
