Bug ID: 137172
Summary: Opening attachment continuously opens in infinite loop
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Replicate
0. Start on XFCE Workspace #2
1. Start LibreOffice Calc
2. Open a spreadsheet
3. Switch to XFCE Workspace #1
4. Start Thunderbird mail reader
5. Open a mail message containing a .docx attachment
6. Click the attachment
7. When prompted, open the attachment with LibreOffice
Expected
The attachment opens in LibreOffice Writer.
Actual
The splash screen appears, disappears, then repeats. Switching XFCE Workspaces
does not interrupt the cyclical and indefinite splash screen flashing.
Workaround
Close the spreadsheet opened from step #2. At this point, LibreOffice may
prompt the user to recover a saved file. This is weird because the save should
have been successful. Continue by recovering. At this point, both LibreOffice
Calc and Writer re-open the spreadsheet and docx file, which was the behaviour
one would have expected from the start.
Environment
Arch Linux, running XFCE with 4 separate workspaces
$ uname -a
Linux hostname 5.7.12-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri, 31 Jul 2020 17:38:22 +0000
