Can you please elaborate by what you mean by "the default working dir"?
A side note (might be related): without any previous libreoffice profile directory (in a clean VM), I changed the locale to Spanish, restarted the session and ran libreoffice, and in the "Options > Paths" settings, the path to "my documents" is set to "/home/username", instead of "/home/username/Documents" when the locale is French (my default, and it happens that "Documents" is the exact same word in English and French). ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792017 Title: wrong default working dir To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1792017/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
