LibreOffice 4.0 will not open ODT files on mounted folder

English Applications
#1

Since testing LibreOffice in the Unstable repo with Gnome and XFCE with 12.2, I have not been able to open ODF (odt, ods, odg) files. With LO 3.6 it works great, but when the 4.0 rpms were introduced a few weeks ago I could only open local files on my Desktop.

I have dropped back down to 3.6 through Stable to make this work for me now.

Is there anything I can do to make this work, or just file a bug with LibreOffice?

Thanks!

I have LO from the Unstable repo running like it should. How did you move to LO Unstable?

Using lo Version 4.0.0.3
(Build ID: 7545bee9c2a0782548772a21bc84a9dcc583b89)

No problems encountered so far.

But needed to re-organise/modify/delete icons via Edit Applications to get autostart of lo files.
Some left were still looking at /…/libreoffice3.6 and not /…/libreoffice4.0

Your title mentions ‘mounted folder’ and your message mentions ‘local
files’, which makes me think you might have omitted some important
information in your description, such as exactly what type of files
don’t work?
