LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I upgraded a few days ago all my packages with pacman -Syu. I upgraded for the first time to LibreOffice 4. Ever since, when I run it it crashes giving me this message:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException'

I read some similar topics here that helped other people with the same problem, but none has worked for me. I deleted:

~/.config/.libreoffice
~/.config/libreoffice (I think this existed as well)

I uninstalled the only one extension that I had installed from AUR, then I rebooted, but STILL the same problem. Can anyone help me? LibreOffice is a major program for my job. Thanks...

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I had the same problem.
After looking in /var/lib/pacman/local I found several other libreoffice-extension not listed as being from aur.
Uninstalling them solved the problem.

Today this happened to me, too. I'm running Arch x86_64.
Here's the output of libreoffice --backtrace:

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I just downgraded to 4.0.1-2 via

# pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libreoffice-*-4.0.1-2-*

and it works again! Some change between 4.0.1-2 and 4.0.1-5 must have broken the package.
Btw I had to downgrade icu to version 50 as well.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

This related thread is [solved]. Remove this package:

libreoffice-extension-numbertext

and try again. Had the same problem, solution worked for me.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

Well, in a more general way, the solution was to remove any extension that was outdated, such as those installed from AUR or locally. Compare

pacman -Qs libreoffice-extension

with packages from the official repositories. Then, trial and error. It just happened that for three of us, numbertext was the one.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I have 4.0.1-5 and I have no issues using it. Is there a specific scenario in which it crashes ?

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

Other libreoffice 4 problems were found to be caused by  libreoffice-gnome.

While those problems had different symptoms, it seems worth to check that.
helix, if you have libreoffice-gnome installed try removing it to see if that solves the problem.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I removed libreoffice-gnome days before and it didn't solve the problem. I also removed libreoffice-kde4 and the problem insists (later I installed this package again). Any suggestion?

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

I have a crash at startup with Libreoffice 4.0.3.3. Persistantly.

PS: the shell gives me an error 139, so it looks (to me) like a segmentation fault.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

Mine crashes as well 4.0.3.3 as I recall.

Was using it all day with no problems. 

Did an install and package updates:
Installed a new menu system on my Openbox, then did a full system upgrade.

Now it just shows the libreoffice splash screen for a second, then crashes.

(FWIW: same version of LO Still works fine in another distro.)

Yeah, same here.  I've got several package versions of 4.0.1 and 4.0.2 in /var/cache/pacman/pkg/.  4.0.2-4 and 4.0.1-5 fail also, actually 4.0.1-5 raises an error about libpng, while 4.0.2-4 and current fail silently.  Also tried deleting ~/.config/libreoffice, no difference.  I do not have libreoffice-extension-* installed.

Re: LibreOffice 4 crashes at startup

Turns out that the icu upgrade is causing the problem - at least for me tongue
In the meantime, downgrading icu gives me LibreOffice back.

Take care
