Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: libreoffice won't open files

Hi :)
It might be a good plan to post the bug-report in both places.  Here is  link to 
the LO guide on bug-reporting.  It's got the link in there somewhere
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
If you do post the bug in both places then it helps to give the url of the other 
as a 2nd comment or something so that people can easily check on progress in the 
other thread.  


I agree with NoOp that probably the best place to report it initially is in the 
openSUSE space instead of the LO one, especially since you have narrowed it down 
to a problem with their tweaked version on their LxDE.  It doesn't really matter 
where since both projects have quite a few devs.
Regards from
Tom :)

Cool! Glad you got it sorted out.

Use link that planas provided to report the bug for LO general. However,
if your version is opensuse specific ("opensuse 11.3, amd64, standard
repository"), then I'd recommend that you report it in your standard
opensuse bug reporting channels as that build is an opensuse build
rather than a standard LO build. Before you do that, you could try
installing the standard LO version and see if it exhibits the same
symptom(s) - I'd test but I don't have opensuse running in a virtual
machine any longer & my test machine with lxde is currently down.
