Hrmpf.

Actually that is "testing".

No, correct would be just "sid" :)

OK.

Not here. Probably it's just big because your screen is small ;-)

I see black background except the buttons, but indeed when I resize
"Lib..." starts to appear.
This appears only with libreoffice-gtk2 installed and not
libreoffice-gtk3 installed. If libreoffice-gtk3 is installed, it just
works )tested in xfce in said sid VM)
(Thankfully xfce 4.14 using gtk3 will enter sid somewhen the next time -
time to drop libreoffice-gtk2, already committed in the 6.4 packaging
branch)

Rene
