When I try to open a Thunderbird email attachment, LibreOffice reports, for example that "/tmp/mozilla_leon0/Wild horses near Lithgow captured to control feral population in Newnes State Forest 11-11-2021 pm.docx does not exist." On checking, I find that: 1. I can find the file if I use Files and 2. When I try to open the file directly from LibreOffice, I get the same message as above. LibreOffice can find the hidden directories /tmp/.snap and /tmp/.X11-unix, but cannot find /tmp/mozilla_leon0/. I am using Thunderbird 78.13.0. This issue has arisen since I updated LibreOffice to version 7.2.2.2. That suggests that the problem arises from my LibreOffice settings. Is there a Thunderbird setting that I can change, to address this problem? Or do I have to

Thunderbird uses the system tmp folder. My guess is the new version of libre is looking for a quoted file name because it has spaces in it (ala windows). Can you reproduce with files without an spaces in the file name?

I re-named the file to "Testdoc.docx." LibreOffice still reports that the document does not exist.
