LibreOffice Application Error
by andygoth from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5EGNX)
With a fresh install of slackware64-current (Fri Feb 19 20:53:50 UTC 2021), followed by libreoffice-7.1.0-x86_64-1alien, I get "Application Error" in the terminal right after the splash screen whenever I try to run LibreOffice. No other diagnostics are provided. It just aborts.
Using "strace -o log -f libreoffice" I see a SIGSEGV in a forked /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin. Then by running that executable in gdb, I see the crash is inside /usr/lib64/gallium-pipe/pipe_iris.so, which is called by /usr/lib64/libMesaOpenCL.so.1 using dynamic library loading. So, LLVM stuff?
Is anyone else having this issue? I can't reproduce on my existing system, only this fresh install to an ASUS VivoBook 15.6. When I have time, I can try doing another install inside a VirtualBox VM.
