            Bug ID: 143271
           Summary: LibreOffice suite: Crash on startup if "Lohit" fonts
                    are not installed
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: aidankelly445 at gmail.com

Description:
Recently, I removed some non-English fonts from my system. After removing the
fonts-lohit* packages and updating the fonts cache, none of the LibreOffice
programs open any longer. The icon appears briefly in the taskbar but then
disappears in about a second. No error message appears. Opening with sudo from
the terminal does work. Here is the result of a backtrace using Writer:

make the new setting effective.

/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/gdbtrace:9: Error in sourced command file:
No stack.

Neither running in safe mode or deleting/recreating the user config folder
helps.

If these font packages are reinstalled (along with cache update & reboot),
LibreOffice opens again. I tried to single out a package that was causing
issues, but the only solution was reinstalling the whole group at once (sudo
apt install fonts-lohit*).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove Lohit fonts using apt: sudo apt remove fonts-lohit*
2. Update fonts cache: sudo fc-cache -frv
3. Reboot
4. Open LibreOffice (through GUI or terminal)

Actual Results:
LibreOffice crashes immediately on startup

Expected Results:
LibreOffice opens normally with the fonts in question no longer listed


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes
