Bug ID: 151054
Summary: LibreOffice Applications don't launch at all, related
to ooSetupFactoryWindowAttributes (Linux, KDE)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I am using Arch Linux with KDE. The version of LibreOffice is 7.4.1.2
LibreOffice applications won't launch at all if they were last closed when
their windows were maximised. They can launch otherwise. The Start Center is
unaffected and applications can be launched from there, just not from the KDE
application menu, nor from command line (e.g., libreoffice --writer). There is
no icon on the KDE task bar when the bug occurs, but the application is running
in the background (i.e., soffice.bin and oosplash can be seen in the System
Monitor).
I traced the bug to ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/registrymodifications.xcu.
Some lines contain ooSetupFactoryWindowAttributes. I realised that applications
can launch normally (e.g., from the KDE application menu) if those lines are
manually deleted, but those lines will be added/changed if the applications are
closed when maximised, therefore breaking stuffs again.
Resetting the UseProfile cannot fix the bug because
ooSetupFactoryWindowAttributes will be added to registrymodifications.xcu.
This bug is specific to each LibreOffice component, because they have separate
ooSetupFactoryWindowAttributes.
Seems to be related to bug 150236, but the exact symptom is different (e.g., no
icon on the KDE task bar at all). Unclear if this is a KDE bug or a LibreOffice
one.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have the latest versions of KDE and LibreOffice
2. Launch a LibreOffice application (but not from the Start Center)
3. Maximise the window
4. Close the application
5. Attempt to launch the same application
Actual Results:
The application fails to visually show up, although soffice.bin and oosplash
are running in the background
Expected Results:
The application shows up
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
OpenGL enabled: Yes
Additional Info:
Arch Linux and KDE
