Yup, I keep my documents in /tmp as well (running tmpfs, to be exact)
and I keep seeing this recovery dialog.

For automation, a workaround I noticed is to pass an "-env" to soffice
when spinning it up.  This has the disadvantage of initializing a new
environment but after shutting down office and removing the temporary
-env, the recovery dialog doesn't show up either.  Unfortunately,
starting up soffice takes longer.

Cheers,
Jens

This could be related to annoyance I have. It confuses the heck out of
my wife, and it's basically Document Recovery having a design fault.
(That's assuming I've identified the symptoms right - I don't suffer the
problem so I haven't really investigated.)

Scenario
Open a document in LO from eg Thunderbird, so it's actually in /tmp
Someone else shuts down the system, effectively killing Writer
Open Writer again

The document recovery pane basically gives you two options, to attempt
recovery, or to abort recovery (which will then try again next time).
Neither is appropriate when you know that the document no longer exists

Wol
