LibreOffice Writer: Saving a new file causes crash

Asked by cirrus

I just updated to Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10).

When I open LibreOffice Writer, create a new file and try to save it, the whole application crashes.

To get more information, I started LibreOffice on the shell and got this errors as an output:
ak@computer:~$ libreoffice

(soffice:15227): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to retrieve the file info for `file:///home/ak/test': Fehler beim Untersuchen der Datei /home/ak/test mit fstat(): Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: relocation error: /usr/lib/librdf.so.0: symbol raptor_new_world_internal, version libraptor2.so.0 not defined in file libraptor2.so.0 with link time reference
ak@computer:~$

I could reproduce this several times, so I assume there must be a bug.

If I use an already existing file, there is no problem at all.

Close all libreoffice apps then run:

mv ~/.libreoffice ~/.libreoffice_old

Then rerun

Thanks for the tip. But unfortunately it did not help.

ok, if you want to roll back you can run:

rm -r ~/.libreoffice; mv ~/.libreoffice_old ~/.libreoffice

Or if you are ok then run:

rm -r ~/.libreoffice_old

What is the output of:

lsb_release -a; apt-cache policy libreoffice

Thanks

Can you help with this problem?
