Recently, libreoffice-bin started segfaulting when I select "Save as" from the menu. I am sure that some days ago it was working just fine, because I do a lot of xls to cvs conversion, and I always use localc for that. The dmesg log says this: === [ 2316.967660] soffice.bin[4122]: segfault at 39 ip b3bcf7fe sp bf9afef0 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.3800.2[b3ba0000+4e000] [/quote] revdep-rebuild says nothing is wrong. Things I've tried, in no particular order: 1.- recompiling libjpeg 2.- changing from libjpeg-turbo to regular libjpeg 3.- downgrading libreoffice-bin 4.- recompiling glib, which is the package containing libgobject 5.- downgrading glib 6.- setting/unsetting OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP While I was writing this bug report, I remembered that libreoffice has an option to use its native dialogs, and setting that seems to solve the issue. So, the problem might have something to do with gtk+. Not sure. I only had gtk+-2.x installed until today (now I have 3.x as well because I had to install gnumeric in a rush to be able to continue working, it didn't make a difference though). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run localc 2. choose save as or open from the menu 3. it just segfaults at libgobject Portage 2.2.8-r1 (default/linux/x86/13.0/desktop, gcc-4.7.3,

@Jesus: please if possible download and install libreoffice-bin-debug, and try to get a backtrace from the crash. (Warning, 800M download.) See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces for some background information. You dont have to recompile anything, since libreoffice-bin(-debug) is already built with the right flags. @gnome team: any known abi problems in recently stabilized gtk+ and friends?
I was planning to install the debug version to get a bt, but that will be tomorrow, becaause first I have to do some room to install it.
see also Bug 503272
Created attachment 373600 [details] The backtrace The backtrace is from running soffice, and then pushing the big "Open" button. At that point, the application crashes and I just dump the output of the gdb bt command.
Does this happen only when using x11-themes/oxygen-gtk, or even with the default Adwaita theme from x11-themes/gnome-themes-standard?
I deleted ~/.gtkrc* and it doesn't segfault now. I thought running with OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP='' or 'none' would fix that, but obviously I was wrong. So it turns out that oxygen is related.
So, I now wonder why does libreoffice segfault, but the rest do not. I use a lot of gtk2 based software (bluefish, evince, gimp, inkscape... to name just a few), and neither of these suffers from this problem. As a side note, I remember oxygen-gtk being updated from 1.4.3 to 1.4.4 some days ago, so maybe that's what triggered the issue. In fact, downgrading to 1.4.3 "solves" the issue, meaning that I can use libreoffice with gtk dialogs. For me it's hard to guess however if the problem is in oxygen-gtk, libreoffice-bin, or somewhere else. It could also be some kind of odd ABI issue which would explain why it doesn't affect any other package.

OK, summa summarum we don't have a clue and it looks like a configuration problem. Closing this since it's been some time. Reopen if it happens again.
