[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1277128] Re: LibreOffice crashes when trying to open template for editing from Template Manager
Rob Parker, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing. In Trusty with the supported Ubuntu repository LibreOffice (not a PPA) please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. First, execute at a terminal: cd /var/crash sudo rm * ; 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 If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now reproduce the crash, then open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit. If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'. If you run the command against the crash report and a window pops up asking you to report this, but then never opens a new report, you would be affected by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/994921 . In order to WORKAROUND this, one would need to open the following file via a command line: gksudo gedit /etc/apport/crashdb.conf and comment out the line: 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'], by changing it to: # 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'], Save, close, and try to file the crash report again via: ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash Please follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOfficeBugWrangling when you file this crash report so the necessary information is provided. I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thank you for your understanding.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1277128] Re: LibreOffice crashes when trying to open template for editing from Template Manager
I've just downloaded an Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) Daily Build (trusty- desktop-amd64.iso), dated 08-Feb-2014 07:49, to test for the same issue there, and it does indeed seem to be present. I ran the daily build (in 'live' form, rather than installing) in a VirtualBox 4.3.6 virtual machine. As of this current build it has LibreOffice 4.2.0.4 (package version 1:4.2.0~rc4-0ubuntu1). I tested for this issue, similarly to as I did on 12.04 (where 12.04 had a PPA enabled, unlike 14.04), by: 1) Open any LibreOffice application (e.g. Writer, Impress, etc.) 2) Open the Template Manager via File -- Templates -- Manage 3) In the Template Manager window, click the Presentations tab 4) Double-click on the 'Presentation Backgrounds' folder which should already be there 5) Singe-click any of the templates shown then click the Edit button above 6) Notice that all LibreOffice windows disappear. It's noteworthy that in the case of 12.04+PPA, I also had the same problem with my own Writer template. So to reiterate, this problem appears to affect the version of LibreOffice which is currently in 14.04 (trusty) builds, in addition to the version provided for 12.04 (precise) by the ppa:libreoffice/ppa PPA. It breaks what appears to be the main way for a user to edit an existing template. The only workarounds I've found are either as described in my comment #1, or that after a first creating and saving a template it will appear in LibreOffice's recent documents from where it can still be opened for editing. I'm about to install the current release of LibreOffice for Windows (from upstream http://www.libreoffice.org/ ) into a Windows XP VM, to see whether this issue exists there too. ** Description changed: I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) amd64 _with_ the ppa:libreoffice/ppa repository/PPA enabled, and this issue is with the current packages (showing as 4.2.0.4 within LibreOffice and 1:4.2.0~rc4-0ubuntu1~precise4 as the package versions).
