1) No, previous versions were fine. 2) My issue got solved through an August update (comment #4 above) so I have not seen any reason to test other versions since. All I can say is that I did try launchpad at the time I was experiencing the bug - no 5.2.x was available yet - and that did not help at all. I will try a later version as soon as I find the time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577093 Title: libreoffice-gtk conflicts with large lo-writer file Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After opening https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1577093/+attachment/4652522/+files/wlst.odt , LibreOffice becomes unresponsive, graying out from a few minutes to a quarter of an hour at a time.

This seems to be a widespread and critical issue. With both Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10, with different computers (e.g. Xeon 64GB RAM 1TB SSD). I have problems with the UI freezing in Writer, Impress, etc. when opening a big file (e.g. with a bunch of images, or Mendeley references), or various mid-sized files to the point it becomes unusable. For example, having a couple relatively big .odp files opened and copying slides between them completely freezes the UI for a couple minutes. This happens with LO 5.2.2.2, the 5.3 Beta2, 5.0.6...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1577093] Re: libreoffice-gtk conflicts with large lo-writer file
You can get more details about what is going on: - install libreoffice-dbg, valgrind - then to start libreoffice,from a terminal, run: soffice --valgrind >& valgrind.log and select the file you want to work with; do some usual job, save the file and close it, then close libreoffice. Finally open the log file to get the details. some debugging troubles of my own: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1617301 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577093 Title: libreoffice-gtk conflicts with large lo-writer file Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installed originally from a weekly beta2 ISO; the image was verified at the time to match its checksum and the install has since consistently been upgraded.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1577093] Re: libreoffice-gtk conflicts with large lo-writer file
I've got 3 computers at home (2 desktop and 1 laptop). This bug clearly affect 2 computers (a desktop and my Asus UX305-FA). Libreoffice is unusable with big files (more than 100 pages). Removing libreoffice-gtk resolve the issue. My third computer (desktop) is not affected, but Libreoffice is a bit slow with big files. This bug appeared with Ubuntu 16.04. Everything was fine with Ubuntu 15.10 and earlier. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577093 Title: libreoffice-gtk conflicts with large lo-writer file Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installed originally from a weekly beta2 ISO; the image was verified at the time to match its checksum and the install has since consistently been upgraded. From the start, Libreoffice writer (1:5.1.2-0ubuntu1 - amd64) has struggled with a "large" file I have been working on since Ubuntu 15.04, although it works perfectly for newly created files or existing smaller files, though. I was hoping to continue using my exiting file, however: one that counts about 14,000 paragraphs, 3.5 million characters and some 300 tables as well a large number of bookmarks/internal links). I should have hoped that LO would simply load it and let me get on with my work as it did before. Unfortunately, here is what really happens whenever I try to load it: - when the progress bar completes , Writer greys out and locks up for several minutes on end (anything from a few minutes to a quarter of an hour) - during that time, the interface is clearly distorted (two overlapping status bars - duplicated vertical scrollbars at the right side - the title bar covering up the menu bar as well as part of the upper toolbar - the horizontal ruler shifted to the right, causing the "comments" column to appear on the left rather than the right) - when the file eventually gets loaded and the interface is restored, the menus turns out to be unusable: the drop-downs are narrow blacks slabs without any entries and without any responsiveness - the page count is wildly off: the file is about 1100 pages, yet Writer reports over 1800; at any moment, however, it will update its count to reflect the actual number. - random actions can produce a new prolonged lock-up; in particular copying text, opening up the navigator or doing a search.
