LibreOffice locked my CentOS 7 hard today, I could not close the application, nor could I reboot the computer by any other mean than turning the computer off and then on again. The lockup happened while loading one of my spreadsheets.
First, I do not understand why a wayward application can lock my computer so hard that I have to cycle power.
Second, I cannot understand why this bug is not fixed. LibreOffice is obviously one of the key applications users will run. It should not be that hard to put out a debug version that those of us who have this problem - at least once a week in my case - that a debug log could help the developers fix this serious bug.
