LibreOffice 3.6.4 and 3.6.5. I have been running LibreOffice for
several years with no problems. When I check for updates I am told
3.6.5 is the latest version for the Mac.
This program was working fine a couple of days ago. I think I may have
installed a Mac update since then but I'm not sure, which could explain
the problem. I can find nothing in the log files.
The problem is that if the ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice
directory exists, LibreOffice will hang when I try to start it. If I
try to delete this directory the computer will hang. If I force the
computer to quit and restart it, the directory will have been moved to
Trash and LibreOffice can be started once.
Once started it seems possible to open, change and save LibreOffice
files, but once you exit the program you can't get back in.
I have not tried this but it might be possible to get LibreOffice
running and to minimize it when not needed, thereby avoiding exiting.
However, I really would like a solution to keep it from hanging.
The more I think about it the more it seems possible this was caused by
a Mac update installed in the last couple of days.
