I have finally sorted this out (I think). Libreoffice crashes when quitting the application in certain conditions. These include - having something on the launch screen - having Languagetool installed - not having the gnome integration package installed Since the actual trigger consists in not having the gnome integration package installed, I have updated the bug title accordingly. In this respect note that: - Gnome integration has never been compulsory before. Among the Libreoffice packages there are both a kde-integration package and a gnome-integration package. Until recently, it was possible to install just kde-integration on kde systems and just gnome-integration in gnome. Now, without gnome-integration, Libreoffice is prone to crashes. - Installing gnome integration is an obvious workaround for the crash. However, it is very undesirable since it creates multiple problems of its own. Specifically: a) If one has both gnome-integration and kde-integration installed, Libreoffice should be smart enough to recognize the environment it is running in and pick the suitable integration flavor. Conversely, if one has gnome-integration installed, libreoffice always assumes that gnome integration is to be used, even if kde integration is also installed and one is under kde. b) With gnome integration on, unless the system *forces* some dpi, Libreoffice always seems to assume 96 dpi, completely ignoring what the system reports with xdpyinfo and randr. Since every other application on the system uses the dpi value reported by xdpyinfo and randr, this completely breaks the integration with the desktop, making the libreoffice fonts invariably look too huge or too tiny. Of course this can be worked around by configuring libreoffice to use a scaling factor for its interface... but why? As a conclusion, please restore the former behavior where libreoffice could work without the gnome-integration package in kde. And assure that the lack of an integration package at most results in an error presented to the user, not in a misterious segfault and core dump. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
