[LO-add-on] Nightlies no longer work with LO 7.5.4.2

[marcoagpinto]

Hello @FredKruse

I have just installed the latest LO available and the add-on no longer works:

Is it a known issue?

Thanks!

I'm getting the same error message with Libreoffice 7.5.4.2 and the 6.1.1 extension (not a nightly). Linux Mint Cinnamon 21.1, kernel 5.19.0-43-generic.

I get this in the languagetool logs even when I try to option the Options settings for LT. The settings are enabled in LO.

There is a bug in 7.5.4, please try again with 7.5.5 once available or downgrade (not sure when the bug exactly appeared, maybe 7.5.3 works).

@danielnaber The error also occurs in the server version. Has anyone reported it to LibreOffice?

Has anyone reported it to LibreOffice?

Probably, I was told 7.5.4 has buggy LT support and 7.5.5 is supposed to fix it.

Looks like this is the exact bug:

• Bug #155647: "Proofreading (grammar checking) does not work in version 7.5.4"

Looks to be fixed for:

• LibreOffice 7.5.5
• LibreOffice 7.6.0

LibreOffice 7.5.5 will release ~July 17–23.
