I installed LO from backports. For some reason some individual packages have been pulled from testing at some time. Some other were slightly outdated (3.4.6-2 instead of 3.4.6-2~bpo60+2).
I see in #19: LO-filter-mobiledev 3.5.2~rc2-1, I had 3.5.4.4-4.
libreoffice-filter-mobiledev to 1:3.4.6-2~bpo60+1 from 1:3.5.4-4. (should've been ~bpo60+2, not +1)Honestly, I don't believe that this has any influcence here. Except that a downgrade of course runs the maintainer scripts etc but -mobiledevdoesn't have serious of them, and I *can* start up LO with -filter-mobiledeinstalled.
You asked in #28 to synchronise the versions package by package until it works. The more obvious changes (to -common, -java-common and -emailmerge) had no effect; downgrading -filter-mobiledev made the difference. There were dependency changes when reinstalling the other packages but not for -mobiledev. The maintainer scripts didn't output any message (other than processing triggers...). I'm just giving my experiences hoping it helps you.
HTH, Henk Perhaps I shouldn't have posted here since I pulled from backports?
