Bug#969653: libreoffice-common: dlopen(…/libmergedlo.so): Bootstrapping exception 'cannot find /org.openoffice.TypeDetection.Types/Types

[Guilhem Moulin <guilhem@debian.org>]

Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 1:7.0.1-1~bpo10+2
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Since /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/registry moved to /etc/libreoffice/registry
loolwsd (not in Debian at the moment) fails during bootstrapping:

    [ forkit ] TRC  dlopen(/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so, RTLD_GLOBAL|RTLD_NOW)| kit/Kit.cpp:2833
    [ forkit ] TRC  Invoking lok_preinit(/usr/lib/libreoffice/program", "file:///user")| kit/Kit.cpp:2887
    Init vcl
    Bootstrapping exception 'cannot find /org.openoffice.TypeDetection.Types/Types …/configmgr/source/rootaccess.cxx:213'
    [ forkit ] TRC  Finished lok_preinit(/usr/lib/libreoffice/program", "file:///user") in 25 ms.| kit/Kit.cpp:2897
    […]
    Bootstrapping exception 'cannot find /org.openoffice.Setup/L10N …/configmgr/source/rootaccess.cxx:213'

LibreOffice itself appears to work fine and I dunno if loolwsd's dlopen(…/libmergedlo.so)
not honoring ${CONFIGURATION_LAYERS} is an upstream bug or not.  The quick fix is
to symlink /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/registry from /etc/libreoffice/registry,
was there any reason not do that?  Setting Severity: wishlist anyway since it
AFAICT only affects software outside Debian.

Cheers,
