AFAIK, charting in LO Base v6 is comprehensively broken, so I can't test this
bug in LO v6.

I have tried most releases (from TDF website) since LO v5.3, and have found
that charting in LO Base is broken in one way or another in all them. Running a
chart report produces a blank space where the chart should be. Clicking on a
chart in Report Builder (to edit it or check settings) likely crashes LO Base.
So I am sticking with LO v5.3.6.1 in a separate install for Base reporting,
which still works for me (well, works well enough).

Text reports in LO Base v6 and previous versions work well. Report Builder 
seems a lot more stable than it was. So the regression with charts is
disappointing - and hard to understand as there seems to have been no changes
in LO Base functionality (nothing in release notes).

I have experimented with scripts to recreate chart reports for each new LO
release, because recreating the reports has resolved some issues in the past,
but without success for charts. It seems to me that the issues are not in
Report Builder itself but with the underlying API.

Just to confirm that I am running LO from TDF on OpenSuse 42.3 x64.
