Heiko/Xisco: in brief, I suppose we need an else case here:

xSyncDbusSessionHelper(SyncDbusSessionHelper::create(comphelper::getProcessComponentContext()));
169 Sequence< OUString > vPackages { "libreoffice-base" };
170 xSyncDbusSessionHelper->InstallPackageNames(vPackages, OUString());
171 // I'll be back (hopefully)!
172 SolarMutexGuard aGuard;
173 executeRestartDialog(comphelper::getProcessComponentContext(),
nullptr, RESTART_REASON_BIBLIOGRAPHY_INSTALL);

175 catch (const Exception &)
176 {
177 TOOLS_INFO_EXCEPTION("sfx.appl", "trying to install LibreOffice

179 }
180 return;
(See

The else case would contain a dialog indicating something like:
"You need to install Base part to use bibliography."
What do you think?

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144607 --- Comment #13 from Rene Engelhard --- A) TDF also provides a separate -base package (though admittedly not as agressively split as we did) B) -writer DOES Suggest -base because if exactly this reason and apt shows so. Mit installing Base then is a deliberate admin choice C) -base is extra because of principle (one doesn't need all stuff if you just want e.g. writer) but also because if it's dependencies - e.g. Java No change intended there and this is basically a admin/user error. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Operating systems may disagree about how it should be installed, but that's not the only reason the files might be missing; shouldn't the software always report some error in cases like these? I've checked debian changes, but it seems there's no changes specific to Debian/Ubuntu. The build script just moves files around. I've confirmed the behavior is the same in Debian, up to Sid with LibreOffice 7.2.1. We can reasonably assume this affects all debian-derived distributions, as well as others using similar packaging approaches. On Void-Linux, which similarly splits the installation, but has a slightly older version (7.1.3.2), it just crashes the application. So this is a widespread issue. I've traced the fix to the crash to commit 1889c1af41650576a29c587a0b2cdeaf0d297587: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=1889c1af41650576a29c587a0b2cdeaf0d297587 Which indeed doesn't implement any feedback. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Ok, let me try to explain: you are not supposed to supply LibreOffice with the applications separately installed.
