           Summary: LibreOffice opens and reads the basis-link file
                    ridiculously often
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: tlillqvist at novell.com


On Windows in the LibreOffice installation folder is a file called basis-link
that contains the name of the "Basis" folder. (Which, as far as I know, always
is constant in a certain version of LibreOffice, and certainly constant in each
build of LibreOffice.) This is to "emulate" the corresponding symbolic link
used on Unix.

This file is being opened and read over and over again during normal use of
LibreOffice. Even just moving the cursor over the toolbars the file gets opened
and read tens of times. Clearly, this is idiotic.

Although, that is not the only file that gets opened (and read, presumably)
over and over again. Also bootstrap.ini for instance. Maybe this bug report
should be more generic and cross-platform?
