[libreoffice-accessibility] Bug-Report Guide & accessibility

Hi :)
Documentation on how to post a bug-report would be great!  There is an excellent 
wiki-page here
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
That might benefit from a bit of re-arranging and tidy-up.  I have forwarded an 
email from the Accessibility list that might be worth incorporating.  It's all 
waaay beyond me.  

Regards from
Tom :)

PS i have CC'd this email to the Accessibility list just to keep people 
informed.

Under the Debian distribution (and possibly others) there is a 
libreoffice-dbgpackage that contains the debug symbols. the first step would be 
to install
it.

The second step would be to run LibreOffice under gdb to obtain back traceswhen 
there is a segmentation fault.

Alternatively, you could enable the creation of core files:
ulimit -c unlimited
which will create a core file whenever a program crashes. You can then use gdbto 
examine the core file.

I am sure there are instructions specific to LibreOffice available somewhere.

Someone who knows the internals of LibreOffice well and who is skilled in 
debugging C++ code should be able to find and fix the bugs.
