No problem, I'm also not a developer.

LO 6.3.4 will replece previous version of LO. But 6.3.4 I don't think that you
will get more problems than with LO 6.2.8.

So then this is not a bug of LO.

Yes, I did so.

So I change it back to NEEDINFO. Please try with a newer version. If you want
to colse the bug report, change status to RESOLVED INSUFFICIENT DATA.
