  1. I’m new to bug tracking. I recently found a problem with printing in Impress. I went on your official IRC channel several times and asked for help on checking the bug and submitting a report. I received either no feedback at all or nothing more than “submit a bug report”. I then learned how to submit a bug report and did so. Here it is https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35275 . But as far as I can tell it has lead to nothing. I am just an end user with no special skills and no bug tracking expertize so I may be missing some important step. But shouldn’t your procedures work for people like me? Does submitting a bug and getting in contact with programmers about it have to be so arcane for LibreOffice? It seems really peculiar. I use many other open source applications, for example VLC. I run Ubuntu on my laptop. Every time I’ve had a problem or found some bug relating to them there’s been straightforward ways to submit information about it and get timely feedback from developers or more knowledgeable users, often in some official forum. OpenOffice was weak in that department but LibreOffice appears much worse.
