Description marko_steinberger 2008-07-19 13:40:18 UTC 
This has been confirmed by various users of Gentoo. Setting LC_ALL to 
de_DE.utf8 (de_DE is german) for example will result in 

/usr/bin/soffice: line 254:  8167 Speicherzugriffsfehler  "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" 
"$@"

Speicherzugriffsfehler is german for Segmentation fault. This seems to be 
reproducible also for other languages as users have reported the same behaviour 
for en_EN.UTF8 and it_IT.UTF8.

I have no problems so far with LC_ALL set to de_DE or de_DE@euro.

This is what is in my /etc/locale.gen:

de_DE ISO-8859-1
de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8

locale -a prints out the following:
C
de_DE
de_DE@euro
de_DE.utf8
POSIX

No such problems with version 2.4.0.

Please have a look at the provided URL referring to the corresponding bug at 
Gentoo.

Regards.

We've never been able to reproduce. As discribed in the gentoo issue it doesn't
happen with OOo 3.x
