Sorry,
UBUNTU 12.04 and LibO 3.6.0.0beta2 build ID:f010139
Danish help installed
US English help not installed

I will try to install English help but I'm on vacation now so it might be in couple of days from now.

> US English help not installed

Still [NOT REPRODUCIBLE] with the environment described (x64).

Note that I used the packages downloaded from website, and installed in parallel. This means I didn't use ubuntu PPA. What did you use? How did you install (in parallel / normal install)?

Could you describe / explain the exact steps how to reproduce it?

If it still crashes in any help languages, please use libreoffice PPA at https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/libreoffice-prereleases, install libreoffice-dbg, and follow http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#How_to_get_backtrace_.28on_Linux.29

This problem may be a Java 7 problem. See bug 50371.
Comment 5 Leif Lodahl 2012-07-05 04:15:05 UTC
Hi,
I installed parallel as well using the following script:

---
#!/bin/bash

for i in LibO-Dev_3.6.0.0.beta2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/*.deb; do dpkg-deb -x $i . ; done
for i in LibO-Dev_3.6.0.0.beta2_Linux_x86_langpack-deb_da/DEBS/*.deb; do dpkg-deb -x $i . ; done
for i in LibO-Dev_3.6.0.0.beta2_Linux_x86_helppack-deb_da/DEBS/*.deb; do dpkg-deb -x $i . ; done

bash /home/leif/Skrivebord/libreoffice/opt/lodev3.6/program/soffice

Comment 6 Leif Lodahl 2012-07-16 15:58:39 UTC
I have made two tests:
Both with the following three packages:
"LibO_3.6.0.1_Linux_x86_helppack-deb_da"
"LibO_3.6.0.1_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US"
"LibO_3.6.0.1_Linux_x86_langpack-deb_da"

First a regular installation with "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
Result: No problem. Search works fine
Second a paralel installation with "for i in LibO_3.6.0.1_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/*.deb; do dpkg-deb -x $i"
Result: LibreOffice closes without error or warning when I search in help.
Comment 7 Julien Nabet 2012-10-18 18:48:02 UTC
Leif: could you clean all your LO install (with purge options) + remove ~/.config/libreoffice and test the package of your distrib or libreoffice ppa? (https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa)

Slated as fixed in 3.6.2, confirming that it is fixed in 3.6.3 rc1.
