OK Here's what I did
cd git/libo
source MacOSXX86Env.Set.sh
cd sc
make -sr clean          #build told me to use make -sr
make -sr debug=true

It produced a new dmg which I installed in Applications and ran.
Got the crash as before.

So how am I supposed to debug? I know how to do that in Xcode.
But this is all new to me. Well to be honest so old - I did this sort of thing in the '70s.
So I need to re-learn / refresh it all again with today's Unix-a-la-Mac.

Do I launch LO and then in terminal run gdb and attach the LO process?
Then set break points in the sc module?

TIA for your help

respect....
