            Bug ID: 139825
           Summary: If avahi service is stopped, opening some documents
                    can take very long to open
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ciampix at posteo.net

Description:
If the service Avahi is absent or disabled, LibreOffice can take up 30 seconds
or more to open a document, independently on its size/complexity.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.stop the avahi service
2.open an already saved document
3.wait...

Actual Results:
It takes a lot to open a document...

Expected Results:
It should see that there is no avahi service running and do not timeout for it!


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
I remember that this problem was present also with previously versions of
LibreOffice (6.* and 5.*) but I do not remember exactly the version number.
I imagine that this problem starts very earlier since the avahi adoption.

Easy workaround: if you have to disable avahi and do not want this behaviour,
just disable ipv4 and ipv6 support on the avahi config and restart avahi.
Avahi will be disabled but LibreOffice will see it as working, and everybody is
happy!
