Package: libreoffice-nlpsolver Version: 0.9~beta1-12 Severity: normal With this extension installed, it becomes impossible to control the solvers (both the built-in linear solver and nlpsolver) from BASIC because any attempt to access the 'Objective' property throws a runtime exception: "[jni_uno bridge error] UNO calling Java method Objective: [map_to_uno():com.sun.star.table.CellAddress] null-ref given!"
This bug was reported on the LibreOffice tracker and has already been fixed in the version of nlpsolver distributed with LibreOffice from libreoffice.org. Upstream bug report (which includes a sample macro to trigger the bug): https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87074 The upstream fix changeset: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=core.git;a=commitdiff;h=c290998df667bd2a8a12379642f79d09eca471c3 I have confirmed that using the nlpsolver extension from LibreOffice.org with the libreoffice-calc package from Debian works correctly. Since the LibreOffice folks seem to be maintaining nlpsolver, I think it would make sense for the Debian package to track that version as its upstream source. Here is a mirror of the LibreOffice repository for the extension: https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/tree/master/nlpsolver/src/com/sun/star/comp/Calc/NLPSolver - chris -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.8 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libreoffice-nlpsolver depends on: ii default-jre [java6-runtime] 2:1.8-57 ii default-jre-headless 2:1.8-57 ii libreoffice-calc 1:5.1.4~rc1-1 ii libreoffice-core 1:5.1.4~rc1-1 ii libreoffice-java-common 1:5.1.4~rc1-1 ii openjdk-7-jre [java6-runtime] 7u75-2.5.4-3 ii openjdk-8-jre [java6-runtime] 8u91-b14-2 libreoffice-nlpsolver recommends no packages. libreoffice-nlpsolver suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
