Everyone:

I have a problem I seem unable to solve, and it began after I used Fedup
to upgrade from F18 to F19.

The problem is with LibreOffice.

No matter what sort of document I open or create, when I use the Find
and Replace function, it either (a) wont find the search key, or (b)
will find everything in the document *but* the search key.

I filed a bug about this with the LibreOffice organization.

They told me they couldn't replicate it in Windows, and suggested it was
a Linux-specific bug.

Now whom do I file this bug with, and against what product, and how
might I correct this?

I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling a specific module,
namely LibreOffice Writer, the worst offender. And the problem remains.

Would I gain anything from removing all applications with LibreOffice in
their name, and installing the LibreOffice suite as one installation
with as many dependencies as it would find?

I would appreciate any help.

$ mv $HOME/.config/libreoffice $HOME/.config/libreoffice-backup
$ file foobar.odt
foobar.odt: OpenDocument Text
$ libreoffice foobar.odt

Well, I couldn't create any "foobar.odt" file. Evidently the "file" command did not work as you thought it might.

But: I did open LibreOffice in the usual way--after changing the name of the configuration directory as you suggested--and opened a document I'd been working on.

And the bad Find-and-Replace problem vanished. Now Find-and-Replace behaves pretty much "as expected."

Thank you,

Temlakos
