Christopher M. Penalver, thank you for your response and instructions. I have executed the commands in the first paragraph, and everything went through without a problem. One minor thing, the very first command (cd /var/crash) complained that there is no such directory. Nevertheless, after executing all commands now I do have such directory.
The problem is, that it is empty, i.e. no crash report is generated by LibreOffice. I did reproduce the crash, but var/crash directory is empty. Apparently, this is a crash within LibreOffice. In fact, when I open LibvreOffice the next time it remembers that there was a crash and recovers successfully the active file prior to the crash. By the way, I suspect the crash is due to the parser module that builds the "Design View" (sorry, I used the wrong terminology in my original bug report), because editing in SQL View or running the query itself does not produce a crash. I chose to file the bug report with Ubuntu and not with LibreOffice because my LibreOffice is from Ubuntu distribution, and as I mentioned, it does not have the standard "update" option. Evidently, Ubuntu has modified or customized the generic LibreOffice package to better suit Ubuntu's architecture. Thanks again, Janos On 05/13/2015 11:48 PM, Christopher M.
