Seems to work for me without the patch. How old or new is your master,

Hmm, this is interesting. ;)

The build I'm hacking here is from Mar 26, when I tested it with a newer
master (3 days old), I get a different behaviour: --conver-to does not
initiate any conversion at all:

~/git/libreoffice/master/install/program$ ./soffice.bin --nologo --convert-to doc --outdir 
/home/vmiklos /home/vmiklos/hello.rtf --headless
~/git/libreoffice/master/install/program$ ls ~/hello.doc
/usr/bin/ls: cannot access /home/vmiklos/hello.doc: No such file or directory

In case I omit --headless, the GUI starts up fine, but there are still
no conversion.

The patch looks non-intrusive and if it works it should be good -
assuming you have made sure that lo is not running in the background
after issuing the command.

Sure, no running instance in the background.

What version is running fine for you?


I tried LibreOffice 3.4 (pre-release) and it works with 'csv' to 'ods'
conversion,
as described in http://www.mail-archive.com/users@libreoffice.org/msg03444.html

./soffice.bin --headless --convert-to ods /tmp/test.csv
convert /tmp/test.csv -> /opt/libreoffice/program/test.ods using calc8
Overwriting: /opt/libreoffice/program/test.ods

(in my case I still have the encoding issues described in the above URL).
