Does your language make use ob libgraphite engine? Then you could try to rebuild the pkg and disable libgraphite support. This was one change we introduced lately.

Hi Andreas,

Well, I don't know whether Hindi (devanagari) uses ob libgraphite engine or not. So, I'm clueless in that. And I installed libreoffice from "extra" using pacman of course.

Stragely LO not crashing now (perhaps due to setup of networkmanager in rc.conf).

As libreoffice-writer is not crashing, I request to close this bug; I'll report another bug report for incorrect hindi text rendering.

thanks.
