Heh, heh, heh. When I was watching the exceptions roll by in gdb, I wrote myself a note (just in case I run out of things to do <grin/>) to look into the four exceptions css::uno::RuntimeException thrown from xmlreader::XmlReader::XmlReader( ... ) with message text "missing whitespace before attribute in " and naming files ... .config/libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages/cache/registry/com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend/common.rdb .config/libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages/cache/registry/com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend/Linux_x86.rdb .config/libreoffice/3/user/extensions/bundled/registry/com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend/common_.rdb .config/libreoffice/3/user/extensions/bundled/registry/com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend/Linux_x86_.rdb Each of the these files looks like it has binary data, and each was last changed at least several months ago. What, I wondered, *should* these files be doing for LibreOffice? So, I have moved those four files away, and both localbuilt LO and LO provided with ubuntu-natty run normally; neither recreates any of the four files. Now, if only I can remember what bug I wanted a new LO for hacking on! Thank you, Michael, for your help.
