After pressing Print, Yes (to forms letter), Ok, I got an error popup without any text. There was just a title bar: "LibreOffice 5.1 - Fatal error" and an otherwise empty box with a yellow (empty) speech bubble and an OK button. After clicking OK, libreoffice crashed. What should have happened: - even if the jdbc is somehow faulty, I'd expect a meaningful diagnostic message and no crash. Again, not a good impression when this happens while attempting to win a newbie over from Microsoft Office.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
