Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

When I try to run LibreOffice with GTK4 GUI I get this:

 env SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk4 soffice

Other toolkits work fine. Tested with GTK3, Qt5, Qt6  and generic. Only GTK4 doesn't work. Is this an actual bug or am I just missing something?

Re: Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

Does

NO_AT_BRIDGE=1 SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk4 soffice

work?
(It aborts and ther output complains about a "bogus" dialog and then the a11y throws a tan… an exception over what looks related to the dialog situation)

Re: Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

No, it doesn't. Ends up with the same kind of crash.

Re: Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

Is this on a wayland or X11 session? And does it make a difference?

SAL_ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=0 NO_AT_BRIDGE=1 SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk4 soffice

Does

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk4 soffice -writer

work (assuming the cause is the startup dialog)

Re: Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk4 soffice -writer

This one works. There must be something wrong with the startup dialog. I'm on Openbox, X11 session.

Re: Libreoffice crashes with GTK4 enabled

1. GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
2. gtk_accessible_get_accessible_parent: assertion 'GTK_IS_ACCESSIBLE (self)' failed
3. gtk_accessible_get_at_context: assertion 'GTK_IS_ACCESSIBLE (self)' failed

1. LO lauches a dialog, using GtkDialog on the gtk backends
2. gtk (*likely*) complains that it cannot query whether the (nonexistent) parent of that dialog "is accessible"
3. the (otherwise harmless?) assertion likely causes an exception to be thrown
4. LO aborts

What I don't get is why skipping the a11y code doesn't work, but you'll have to file a bug against LO about that.
