Right? That's Java code hitting an unitialised (object) variable. Just type "continue". To get gdb to not stop/handle SIGSEGV, but only pass it to the program, the command is: handle SIGSEGV pass noprint nostop But if you are hunting for a "real" segfault, then you'll also miss the one you are hunting for :) Luckily that is not your case here. ( When hunting for a segfault, I usually just type "continue" a few times until I get to the right one, or I disable gdb's handling of segfaults until I know the one I want is near, and then reenable it: handle SIGSEGV pass print stop ) Also, before running soffice.bin in gdb, I thought one needed to "source ooenv". You did that? > Not sure why. Also mine looks nothing like Lionel's did when he ran > gdb.
