Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 1:5.2.0-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
On a system with libreoffice-common installed, but not libreoffice-writer,
doing this:
libreoffice my_valid_document.odt
crashes libreoffice instantly with a message
LibreOffice Document Recovery
Due to an unexpected error, LibreOffice crashed. All the files you were working
on will now be saved. The next time LibreOffice is launched, your files will be
recovered automatically.
I expected libreoffice to (a) not crash and (b) say something along the lines of
"can't open that file because the 'writer' component isn't installed.
The solution for me is to install libreoffice-writer. But libreoffice's "I've
crashed" handling of the situation made it hard to realise that was the problem.
Matt
