Bug#950225: libreoffice-writer: Immediate crash lunching mail merge wizard
Package: libreoffice-writer
Version: 1:6.4.0-1
Severity: normal
The following steps always make LibreOffice crash:
- Start Writer with a new empty document
- Tools -> Mail Merge Wizard...
As soon as I click to start the wizard, LibreOffice closes and the Document
Recovery window open up saying: "Due to an error, LibreOffice crashed..."
Then the recovery process starts.
I've never used the mail merge function before, so I don't know if it
worked with previous LibreOffice versions.
I've tryed starting LibreOffice from the terminal with this command line:
soffice --writer
An this is the output:
--------------
javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Please ensure that a JVM and the package libreoffice-java-common
is installed.
If it is already installed then try removing ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml
Warning: failed to read path from javaldx
terminate called without an active exception
--------------
The message "terminate called without an active exception" is printed when
the crash happens.
I've never installed Java and I prefer to not have to. And searching around
I've not found evidence that this function depends on Java: I've read it's
written in python. Please, tell me if I'm wrong.
Cesare.
