LibreOffice doesn't want that icon itself I think, it's some GNOMEish thingy I guess?

I don't see libreoffice here?

That indeed is thrown by libreoffice I guess.

Happens with GNOME to on a update VM, too :/

It works with SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen or =kf6 forcing generic or KF6 UI (or for that matter gtk4) so it's definitely gtk3 only (which is used on xfce, GNOME, etc...)

I believe it's a side-effect of #1127158 which happened today? Just taled about this on IRC:

22:41 < _rene_> jbicha: #1127558 (happens with GNOME, too :/) looks like a fallout of #1127158? :(

22:52 < jbicha> _rene_: thanks for the report. I confirm LO is crashing in Ubuntu too (once I installed the updated gdk-pixbuf). I am asking GNOME if they 
                have seen something like this.
22:54 < jbicha> except my Matrix is being difficult after I restarted 😢
22:54 < _rene_> want it reassigned?
22:55 < _rene_> (if so: which package? the lib? would of course affects: libreoffice and libreoffice-gtk3)

22:55 < jbicha> how about cloned to src:gdk-pixbuf? it may make sense to delay migration to Testing, but there's a decent chance LibreOffice needs fixing
22:55 < _rene_> hrm
22:55 < _rene_> ok, will do
22:56 < _rene_> important or RC? (as you say t may make sense to delay migration to Testin, I think you mean gdk-pixbuf)
22:57 < _rene_> of course it's probably RC for libreoffice-gtk3, which would migrate tomorrow normally but *shrugs*
23:00 < jbicha> gdk-pixbuf can be serious for the new version. You can either set the LO bug to important or tweak the version so that it affects the version 
                already in testing.

Doing accordingly.

Rene
