<pre>Opening any type of MS Excel file (xls or xlsx) causes Libreoffice to crash.
Issue appears to be related to use of RHEL 6.4 and KDE. Uname info follows:
Linux MyHostName 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Sep 14 05:32:37 EDT 2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Example terminal output when opening file.
$ libreoffice5.2 tim_snacks_signup.xls
QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type
'css::uno::Reference<css::uno::XComponentContext>'
(Make sure 'css::uno::Reference<css::uno::XComponentContext>' is registered
using qRegisterMetaType().)
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
Then a document recovery window is shown and clicking OK ends the program.
A work-around has been found that allows using the program:
export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP="gnome"
Libreoffice then will open Excel files with no problem.</pre>
