Re: [libreoffice-users] more errors, libreoffice on amd64 debian, starts now but immediately aborts. RESOLVED

HA!
Finally *really* resolve!

I got to thinking...since I could run as root, but not user, that,
there might be come user specific
config that was messing stuff up.
Once more I deleted the ENTIRE installation, (aptitude purge), and, this time,
went into my /home to make sure there were no remnants of any configs
(in my experience, these purges often neglect configs in /home).
Well, guess what...there WAS .libreoffice directory still in there!
I imagine it was, indeed, the .libreoffice dir that I had backup from
my old machine
(regular old 32bit x86 debian on celeron processor), since I had
copied the entire backup
of that machine's /home to this new machine (saves a lot of time,
since my old configs
come right over).
I went in there and did a rm -rf * then up to /home and rmidir
.libreoffice, then,
once more, installed the debs from the tarball from the site.
Now, finally, it IS running, as user, without dumping.
I still had to go in and rm the libcairo.so.2 from
/opt/libreoffice/basis3.3/program
(don't know why, but removing it and forcing the program to use the
debian libcairo.so.2
in /usr/lib fixes another little error).
Now, all is sunshine and flowers and happiness.

So, in the end, the biggest issues was that I copied over the configs
from an older machine.
My bad.

In any case, thanks for all of your assistance.
