Hi folks!

The title says it all. Libreoffice Base crashes when a file is loaded in fedora 40 on ThinkPad T480s. Has anyone else had this problem? My system is regularly updated but to no resolve. Tried a clean install and update but problem persists. Any help is appreciated.

Did you install it as Flatpak or RPM? If it is RPM, launch it from the terminal with the libreoffice --base command and check the errors.

Thank you for the reply, much appreciated! I installed with dnf on the command line, so, RPM. I just found the solution. I uninstalled libreoffice from the command line and used the “Software” app to install the flatpak. Now it works flawlessly.

Thank you very much for the tip to replace libreoffice with a flatpak version.
Thanks Sjaak
