Public bug reported: When I attempt to open a document in LibreOffice Writer, by any method, I am shown a loading dialog with a progress bar. The progress bar advances to about 95%, then disappears, and nothing happens.
I have tried launching LibreOffice Writer by several methods: - Start LibreOffice, click "Create/Writer Document" - Open a filetype associated with LibreOffice Writer in a file browser - Launch libreoffice --writer in a terminal (This outputs nothing) I have confirmed via ps -A that LibreOffice is truly closed, and not merely invisible. Things I tried, with no difference: - sudo apt-get install --reinstall libreoffice-writer - rm ~/.config/libreoffice - cp -a /usr/lib/libreoffice/share ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user This is a fresh install of LibreOffice on a fresh install of Lubuntu. Other LibreOffice applications, such as Calc, work fine.
