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.

Someone who actually needs LibreOffice and who has the time should install
debug symbols and get stack traces.


Is there any guidance anywhere on how to do this?

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.
