Regarding not upgrading unstable often enough, I was on holiday with limited internet access, otherwise I'd be upgrading every 2-3 days. Regarding the version info, I didn't realise it was ok/possible to put two versions in the tag, but I put it in the text anyway. Maybe file it as a bug to the reportbug maintainers? No weird fonts or anything, using liberation* or mscorefonts* makes no difference, gnome is using canterell, changing that doesn't help either. Regards.

Maybe file it > as a bug to the reportbug maintainers? The point is that you should not add two versions but the earliest one you found it in. The BTS tracks the versions. See the graph right at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=838418. In you rinitial report it would think it was new in 5.2.1-3, thus also making the testing scripts refuse to update 5.2.1-1 in testing because "it has new bugs (compared to testing)" which is untrue. That one's said in what reportbug has shown you: --- snip --- Set the Version: header right. If you found a bug in a specific version, set that as version:, even if you in the meanwhile upgraded. If you are on an up-to-date version and tried old versions and they have the bug, too, set the Version: header to the earliest version you found it in (of course, if versions inbetween don't have the bug use the version in which it reappeared and sustained to the current version) --- snip --- > No weird fonts or anything, using liberation* or mscorefonts* makes no > difference, gnome is using canterell, changing that doesn't help either. Hmm, OK... Regards, Rene

found 838418 1:5.2.1-1 thanks On Tue, Sep 20, 2016 at 11:25:58PM +0100, Simon John wrote: > Package: libreoffice-gtk3 > Version: 1:5.2.1-3 Obviously wrrong. Because you say below that 1:5.2.1-1 has the same problem. So please take some care on reporting bugs, especially if it's RC and your bug will block other RC bugfixes to enter testing. > Upgrade of libreoffice.

That makes it harder to find out which exact upgrade was the problem. You use unstable, if you want a stable system (as in non-changing) use stable or (lesser changing than unstable) testing. > Its not a driver issue as I get the same problem on Nvidia (nouveau) > desktop and Intel laptop. Any special fonts or anything else which might be special? Regards, Rene
Bug#838418: libreoffice-gtk3: Font corruption - both content and dialogs
Package: libreoffice-gtk3 Version: 1:5.2.1-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Upgrade of libreoffice. It was definitely working fine on August 16th, then I haven't done any upgrades until this last week, so I suspect the move from 5.2.0 to 5.2.1 * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Loaded a spreadsheet, then changed a filter or preference that caused the display to refresh. * What was the outcome of this action? Cell content was illegible - sometimes just garbarge, sometimes the characters were replaced with other (random?) characters, sometimes some characters were emboldened. Also dialog boxes were corrupted - such as the save/discard/cancel buttons, and even the text in the input line. I tried various things - deleting the user profile, running as root, rolling back to 5.2.1-1, reinstalling fonts, nothing worked other than uninstalling libreoffice-gtk3. Its not a driver issue as I get the same problem on Nvidia (nouveau) desktop and Intel laptop. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libreoffice-gtk3 depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.10 ii libatk1.0-0 2.22.0-1 ii libc6 2.24-3 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libcairo2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.10-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.108-1 ii libgcc1 1:6.2.0-4 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-02.36.0-1 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 12.0.3-1 ii libglew2.02.0.0-3 ii libglib2.0-0 2.49.7-1 ii libglu1-mesa [libglu1]9.0.0-2.1 ii libgtk-3-03.21.6-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-01.40.2-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.2-1 ii libreoffice-core 1:5.2.1-3 ii libsm62:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libstdc++66.2.0-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii uno-libs3 5.2.1-3 ii ure 5.2.1-3 Versions of packages libreoffice-gtk3 recommends: ii libreoffice-style-tango 1:5.2.1-3 Versions of packages libreoffice-gtk3 suggests: ii libreofficekit-data 1:5.2.1-3 -- no debconf information
