Unfortunately, starting a few days ago, v 3.5.0 kept systematically
crashing while performing basic tasks, requiring a lengthy irksome
restart, etc. each time.
The dialog box warning specified that a JRE was not present. Knowing
just where in the Options to check for the Java JRE (a relatively simple
no-brainer for most...), it was obvious that there was no JRE installed
automatically, as was the case for eons already.
Installing a JRE to effect Java1.7 stopped all such crashes since.

Hi :)
OOo used to install java while it was being installed. However, java upgrades so often nowadays, that the safest way to keep up is to let the users upgrade java separately. LO 3.5.0 was meant to work with java 1.7.0 but the 1.7.0 has still not been released properly yet. There were rumours that malware was already able to compromise the 1.7.0. Avoiding java seems like a good aim. Just my 2cents.
I'm not sure about the ToC issue either tbh.

We are the documentation (user guides, translations, manuals) and honestly
most of us know squat about the inner functionalities of the program per
se.
Please subscribe to the user list or dev list or make a bug report.
Sorry, but you are talking to the wrong crowd :)))

I came across a series of crashes a couple days ago because Java was not
installed with 3.5. Checking through the Options showed that no Java JRE
was automatically installed. So, checking my hard drive showed that my
system had two versions of JREs.
Manually adding the more recent (possibly, a year old) JRE through the
Options fixed that problem--version 1.7 was installed, BTW.
On another matter, I am experiencing some problems with generating a ToC,
which seem transitory, and quite likely are bug-related.
Beta 3.5 did not install all those numerous list paragraph styles that
earlier OO and LO versions did . However, the 3.5.0 release has reinstalled
them--as before--it seems.
