Re: [libreoffice-users] Personal settings causing calc to crash

Hi :)
My guess would be it's an extension. So i would start by copying the 
~/.libreoffice/3/user/extensions
folder across and see if that crashed LO when you re-open it.  There are 16 items in the 
~/.libreoffice/3/user
folder so i would move half, 8.  Test.  Then move a remaining half, 4 ... and so on until LO 
crashes and then delete the half you just added and add half that back in.  By doing half each time 
you can narrow it down quite quickly.  

It is probably obvious to you but a lot of people would do this 1 file in 1 sub-folder at a time 
and perhaps draw-up a tick list on paper. [big yawn]
Regards from
Tom :)
