            Bug ID: 73080
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: COUNTBLANK counts formula with reference to blank cell
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.3.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Make sure B2 is empty, that means, that it does not contain any content.
Write the formula =B2 into cell B3
Write the formula =COUNTBLANK(B2:B3) into cell A1.
Expected result: A1 shows number 1.
Seen result: A1 shows number 2.

The content of cell B3 is a formula, therefore it is not empty and may not be
counted. The specification only allows the exception, that a cell, which
contains a zero-length string, may be counted by COUNTBLANK.

Apache OpenOffice, Gnumeric, and Excel does not count cell B3 and return 1 in
the example given above.

Suggestion: LibreOffice does not count cell which has a formula that refers an
empty cell.
