This 'path being fixed' issue is also present on Ubuntu 13.04 for lo 3.6 and 4.0. It is not there across the lo versions on win7 or Ubuntu 12.04. It looks like something happened in Ubuntu 12.10 and is carried over to 13.04 to cause this to happen.

Select Templates , then select Edit… Select Add… and add a path which is not the home directory. The path added is /home/<user>, irrespective of the path selected. This appears to be an instance of upstream bug https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55323, which describes the same behaviour *when the LibreOffice dialogs are not used* (See comment 6 "…I just found out that this bug only occurs if I don't use the LibreOffice dialogs for opening and saving files…." The impact is that there appears to be no way of setting any path to anything other than the installation defaults. Ubuntu is 12.10, LibreOffice is Version 3.6.2.2 (Build ID: 360m1(Build:2)), desktop is gnome-session-fallback 3.6.0-0ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1085310/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
