Package: libreoffice-common Version: 1:4.2.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have Avahi service publishing disabled with the following setting in /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf: [publish] disable-publishing=yes Attempting to run either LibreOffice Draw or LibreOffice Impress fails, giving an error message like this: $ soffice --draw Adding service 'pangloss' Failed to add _impressremote._tcp service: Not permitted soffice.bin: client.c:626: avahi_client_free: Assertion `client' failed. With service publishing enabled, these applications start up normally. I understand that Impress Remote is a new facility is to allow a mobile device to control a presentation. I couldn't find an option anywhere to turn this facility off. Disabling service publishing is IMHO a reasonable security measure which is suggested in the avahi-daemon.conf man page; I use Avahi mDNS as a client for printer discovery but don't need to broadcast services to the net. I think LibreOffice should be able to deal with this without refusing to run. Kind regards, Ken. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libreoffice-common depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.10 ii libreoffice-style-galaxy [libreoffice-style-default] 1:4.2.5-1 ii libreoffice-style-oxygen [libreoffice-style] 1:4.2.5-1 ii libreoffice-style-tango [libreoffice-style] 1:4.2.5-1 ii ure 4.2.5-1+b1 Versions of packages libreoffice-common recommends: ii libexttextcat-data 3.4.4-1 ii python3-uno 1:4.2.5-1+b1 pn xfonts-mathml <none> Versions of packages libreoffice-common suggests: pn libreoffice-style-crystal <none> pn libreoffice-style-hicontrast <none> ii libreoffice-style-oxygen 1:4.2.5-1 pn libreoffice-style-sifr <none> ii libreoffice-style-tango 1:4.2.5-1 Versions of packages python3-uno depends on: ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.1-1 ii libpython3.4 3.4.1-7 ii libreoffice-core 1:4.2.5-1+b1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.1-1 ii python3 3.4.1-1 ii python3.4 3.4.1-7 ii uno-libs3 4.2.5-1+b1 ii ure 4.2.5-1+b1 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
