Subject: libreoffice-writer: Writer aborts with 'unexpected error' when opening one particular docx file
Date: Sun, 14 Apr 2019 16:07:27 +0200
Package: libreoffice-writer
Version: 1:6.1.5-2
Severity: normal

The following problem happens with LO Writer 6.1.5.2 from Debian, but not
with the same version downloaded from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/
I filed an upstream bug: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124607
but upstream canno reproduce it.  So could this be a packaging bug...

Opening the attached file gives me a textbox saying "Due to an expected error LO crashed" (my translation of a German text). 

If I then click 'ok', the document recuperation dialog starts, but when I click on "start recuperation", I get a hard segfault with the screen message attached below.

My LO version is

Version: 6.1.5.2
Build-ID: 1:6.1.5-1
CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Linux 4.19; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: gtk3; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); Calc: group threaded

Here is the backtrace.  I have tried the libreoffice-writer-dbgsym package,
but that did not make the backtrace more helpful.

Hello Oliver,

I forwarded your report at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125260

This kind of bug is not specific to Debian. I recommend you register on the bugtracker of LO and follow it. There are many different crash cases.

Hi Stéphane,

thanks for caring about my bug report. However, you wrote:

> This kind of bug is not specific to Debian. I recommend you register on the bugtracker of LO and follow it.

This is indeed what I did before filing the Debian report.  In particular,
my Debian report says:

> I filed an upstream bug: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124607
> but upstream cannot reproduce it.  So could this be a packaging bug...

And later in that bugreport I note that I get the bug with the Debian package of LO
but not with the same LO version downloaded directly from the Document Foundation site.

So I am not convinced yet that this is not a Debian issue.

Best regards,
Oliver

and I am not convinced it is. We don't patch that place, and if a build
with sane build options (or a different compiler, ..) exhibits this bug
it is STILL a upstream bug. That upstreams ia fast at blaming thers is
now, but..

(We also split the package differently, but I don't believe this can be
the case here.)

That upstreams test on obsolete distros with old libraries is also not
very helpful.

See above, I am not conviced it's a Debian issue and not a upstream
issue.

submitter says in the upstream bug:

--- snip ---
I tested it with the LibreOffice provided by current Debian unstable,
and LO did not crash.  So whatever caused this bug seems to have gone.
Thanks for your help.
