Re: [libreoffice-users] Some documents make libreoffice-writer crash

Unfortunately I'm still not out of the woods.

The TDF version of LibreOffice isn't detected by bibus. Which means no 
bibliography, which is pretty much a deal-breaker.

So I played with the debian/testing version again, and managed to get it 
to not crash with my file by deleting my user profile. Then I rebuilt 
the profile... and it started crashing again. And now if I start again 
with a virgin profile, it still crashes.

I tried to look at the source for bibus (it's all in python) to work out 
how it detects whether Libre/Open-Office is present, but don't know 
enough about the LibreOffice API to know what I'm really looking for.

So I still have a basically unusable system. :(
