--- snip ---
I have Avahi service publishing disabled with the following setting in
/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf:

  [publish]
  disable-publishing=yes

Attempting to run either LibreOffice Draw or LibreOffice Impress fails, giving
an error message like this:

  $ soffice --draw
  Adding service 'pangloss'
  Failed to add _impressremote._tcp service: Not permitted
  soffice.bin: client.c:626: avahi_client_free: Assertion `client' failed.

With service publishing enabled, these applications start up normally.

[...]

Disabling service publishing is IMHO a reasonable security measure which is
suggested in the avahi-daemon.conf man page; I use Avahi mDNS as a client for
printer discovery but don't need to broadcast services to the net.  I think
LibreOffice should be able to deal with this without refusing to run.

I agree...

Seems not been confirmed for me under Ubuntu 14.04. I modified the avahi daemon 
configuration and restarted the daemon using the following command:
sudo /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon restart
On LO 4.1.6 (TDF build) which is the only version I have where remote control 
is enabled, Impress and Draw start without problem. I tested with Bluetouth 
enabled and visible.
Will rebuild 4.2 branch with remote control enabled and test again.

Best regards. JBF

jbfaure:

- 4.1.6 didn't have any avahi stuff there so of course it works

- that's only in 4.2.x/4.3.x/.. _and_ you need NON-TDF builds, as TDF
builds are not configured with --enable-avahi so that part is not even
compiled in. So you of course also would not be able to reproduce this
on a TDF-4.2.x. And Remote Control itself is not directly responsible
for it but the avahi support for it.

@Rene - of course this should just be put to NEW as you are one of our
developers who know their stuff :)

Reproducible with LO 4.2.7.0.0+ build with avahi support. Launching
Impress from the StartCenter make LO crashing with the same error
message in the terminal as in the bug description.

Same problem when starting Draw. I know that Impress and Draw share many
code, but it seems to me that Draw shouldn't be subject to impress-
remote connection problems.

Set importance to critical because there is a crash.
