In an off-list mail, Eugene Zaretskiy was kind enough to point me at the annoying bugs of the release notes located here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/index.php?title=ReleaseNotes/3.6#Most_annoying_bugs Which reads in part: # Various problems with bundled extensions. This includes, but is not # necessarily limited to the below issues. Work-around: manually # remove the per-user cache for bundled extensions and restart # LibreOffice. How to do this is platform-dependend. [sic] # On Linux, in a terminal window enter # “rm -rf ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user/extensions”. # On Mac OS X, in a Terminal window enter # “rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/LibreOffice/3/user/extensions”. # On Microsoft Windows, in a Command Prompt window enter # “rmdir /q /s %appdata%\LibreOffice\3\user\extensions” # (and note the requirement# to restart LibreOffice twice, see above). This did the trick for me. LibreOffice starts without problems after deleting the user/extensions directory. // Ben -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
