<pre>OS: Linux Mint 18.3 with all current updates
LO 6.4.3.2 release, .deb files from
<a href="https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/">https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/</a>
Locale: At a Linux shell prompt, the "locale" command says LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Symptoms: As soon as I open LO Base (the application, not an .odb file), I get
the dialog box whose title says "LibreOffice 6.4 Document Recovery". I am
unable to continue past this to create a database; I'm eventually shown the
same document-recovery dialog again, before I can get to the window that would
let me create a database.
I am able to open an existing (made with LO 6.3) .odb database with LO 6.4.
History: Originally I had LO 6.2.8rc2 installed from the LO PPA
(<a href="http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu">http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu</a> xenial main). I have also
recently tried:
* the LO 6.3.5.2 .deb files from the same LO download page, and
* the Flatpak LO install from within the past couple of weeks.
LO 6.2.8rc2 and 6.3.5.2 seemed to run OK, but I think there is a bugfix in
6.4.3.2 which I want to upgrade to. The Flatpak install didn't crash, but had
some problem with Base that I don't remember. (I am trying to use the embedded
Firebird, and I think I might not have been able to select the
embedded-Firebird option when creating a database in the Flatpak version of
LO.)
I don't remember the exact sequence in which I installed & un-installed the
various versions.
* I believe I've never had the download-page .debs of both 6.3 & 6.4 installed
at the same time. I've un-installed each of the 2 versions by using Synaptic
before running "dpkg -i *.deb" on the other version.
* I'm pretty sure I have had download-page .deb + PPA version + Flatpak version
installed all at the same time.
* Currently, I have the PPA version & Flatpak version un-installed, and only
the download-page .debs (of 6.4) installed so I can test this problem for this
bug report. By the time the LO QA team follows up with me, I might have a
different version installed, but I'll try my best to do further testing if
requested.
Thanks in advance.</pre>
