Packages from this ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice

Version: 4.3.0-0ubuntu1~trusty1 (as reported by dpkg)
or 4.3.0.4 Build ID: 430m0(Build:4) as reported by LibreOffice about dialog.

LibreOffice uses it's native filepicker/save dialogs, regardless of
whether the config option "Use LibreOffice Dialogs" is ticked or not.

This is a regression from 4.2.4-0ubuntu2 currently in the security
repository.

I'm updating the severity of this bug.

Combined with #78845, which closes the filepicker dialog when you click
the New Folder icon, not only is the forced use of the native filepicker
inconvenient, but it doesn't actually work.

But I can confirm it's not happen with LO 4.0.4.2 (from PPA) under

behavior?

Hi ign_christian, 
Tested as you suggested, the site is listing v4.3.0.4 for download.
It is working as expected in that release (albeit #78845 is still present). 

I initially attempted to report the bug in Launchpad, but there isn't
(or I couldn't find) a way for that particular ppa.

Hi Bernard, thanks for your confirmation. So the bug is only occured in
package from PPA.

AFAIK there is a link for official Ubuntu repository, but I don't if
that also used for PPA:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+filebug

After bug filed there, please link that bug here. We'll know soon if
your report with that link rejected ;)

Bug 78845 fixed in 4.3.1 (see the whiteboard). If you still reproduce that issue with 4.3.1 release or daily, just drop a comment in that bug.

Hi Bernard,

This is not our bug. You should open a bug against Qt4 package of
Ubuntu, and ask them to add the patch from https://bugreports.qt-
project.org/browse/QTBUG-34614.

Hi Maxim, 
Thanks for the reply, I'm happy to make the report on the QT tracker, but I can't work out how the QT Clipboard bug you linked to is related to my issue - could you clarify this for me?

Actually I meant the Ubuntu tracker, for the qt4-x11 package.

This is explained in the Qt bug I referenced. There are also some comments in the LO code, like [1]. (In also mentions QTBUG-37380, but Ubuntu already has this patch [2]).

And BTW, adding also https://bugreports.qt-
project.org/browse/QTBUG-38585 is recommended.

In short: To avoid crashes, we disable Qt dialogs at runtime, if buggy Qt is detected.

I missed this when I was looking previously, but they have a link to an explanation of how to report bugs against the PPA package here:
