hm. ok. Then I suggest the BTS automatically rejects, with proper msg to 
reporter, reports for version it doesn't know of and/or isn't interested in.

 Try it in sid/lenny please before reporting a bug..

that'd mean I'd shut up till I eventually upgrade a machine to Lenny, which 
would happen rather long after Lenny-stable. Sorry, BPO is the only source 
of prepackaged .deb for Etch tracked by packages.debian.org afaik. 
Above the stable 2.0.4 that is.

Testing and gathering infos for a bug report takes some effort, if you're 
not going to consider bug.rep. against BPO, pls state so clearly - possibly 
in the README.Debian - so that we save everybody's time (though I still
need to find a workaroud). 
But perhaps that should go (also) on front pages on both pkg search and BTS 
as a general statement?
 
  this is part of Bug#471348 saga, only that I'm filing against the - hoeply -
  proper sub-pkg.
 
 In which you didn't submit any info with which the author can debug it.
 And in this bug you didn't either.

wrong, check your mailbox:

  Like for the .sdc case there, OOo2.4.0-4~bpo40+1 hangs while trying to open
  a .sdw made in SO5.2, taking away the CPU. 

answering to your other msg: SEGV was the best/worst case: best since OOo2
died before taking the system down, worst since - well - it segv.
That was for OOo2.3.1, OOo2.4.0 worked on those files, though (Debian's) OOo2
takes much more CPU to do the job than OOo1.1.5 *and* official OOo's 
OOo2.4.0 (which works just fine, so far).
I feel I'm seeing effects of the some bug, in SO import filters.

  And like in the other case, OOo1.1.5 does the job without a glitch.
 
 No one even remotely cares about OOo 1.1.5 anymore.

guess so; though I'm not reporting a bug against OOo1x, the fact that OOo1
get it right may give some  hint. 
 
  This is becoming a serious issue, as the doc base (here) is largely .sd* and
 
 Where have you been the last years?

doing something else than keeping on upgrade  break working systems.

 Then you should give out documents to get the authors debug it. Not just
 filing bugs which rot because no one can test. (like #471348).

see above. I do what+when I can - I don't own those docs.

 anyway that it just happens for some documents, not all.

correct (likely); looks like an heisenbug. Likely Debian-specific though, as
OOo2 from OOo (build OOH680_m12_native_packed-1_it.9286) seems to work just 
fine (so far), on Woody, Sarge, Etch.

I am not saying that, I just say you should try on the real codelines

It doesn't, no one even can follow anymore what changed since it.

I did not say you should upgrade your main system.

 Err, what? #484453 talks about a segfault not a hang. Can you please

there's a bit of confusione here: I was talking of #471348, not #484453
which has nothing to do :

Package: openafs-client
Version: 1.4.7.dfsg1-2

happend, as I didn't manually set the addresses.

again. BPO is not in the scope of this BTS and the BTS does not know
about this version for tracking versions which have the bug or not.
Marking as found in 2.4.0-4 although not knowing whether it happens in
lenny/sid, too...

Try it in sid/lenny please before reporting a bug..

Where have you been the last years?

 SO dosn't work in Sarge/Etch anymore, systems are being migrated to Etch
 which ships OOo2 and I'd rather get rid of the fallback stuff in /opt/ from 
 upstream OOo.

Then you should give out documents to get the authors debug it. Not just

That said, I do not have *any* SO 5.2 documents here to try, and I'd bet
anyway that it just happens for some documents, not all.

Err, what? #484453 talks about a segfault not a hang. Can you please
compare for simileriness? Or did the SIGSEV vanish and it now just
hangs? Then 484453 should be updated (and those bugs merged, or this bug
should have not been filed at all but 484453 reassigned).

Anyway, as already said in my first reply: This time of course also more
info needed before any action can be taken.
