This will give you a "command not found" ;)

Define empty.

Ah.
This is already broken and the root cause.
Yes, it shouldn't crash but a non-existing file menu is bad. :)
Which desktop? Do you use some "special" theme? KDE or GNOME?
With or without -kde/-gnome installed respectively?

Ah, right. You have a wheezy system (most of the packages below are wheezy)
which prefers stable (see above) and which even has stuff from *experimental*
(see e.g. the 3.6.5~rc2 stuff.) installed.
What if you tried on a non-messy system? I will try to reproduce your
issue but depends on how messy your system is this might not be reproducible.
Besides that - if it's a bug - the vbug would be in core as that is
responsible for the menu (obviously, as menu drawing is core stuff, no?)
not writer.
And *if* it's a bug in the experimental packages for missing breaks: etc
it's a bug in *them*, not wheezys 3.5.4...
Regards,
Rene
