             Bug #: 49845
           Summary: FILEOPEN: Crashes when opening .ppt file created with
                    previous version.  OpenOffice opens it OK.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.3 release
          Platform: Other

          Priority: medium

This is the file that causes the crash.

Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Load attached file
2. Note that LibreOffice crashes, with a popup window saying "LibreOffice 3.5
has stopped working"
3. curse!

The file is opened perfectly OK by OpenOffice 3.4.  It has a lot of equations
created using math, and these seem to be displayed correctly by OpenOffice. 
The file was created using a recent previous version of LibreOffice.  I noticed
the problem in that previous version, so I updated.  But that didn't help.
Fortunately, I had a previous version in the native LibreOffice format (.odp)
and was able to go back to that.  But it resulted in some serious loss of hair.

Expected behavior:
It should be able to open the file.  The file was, after all, created by
LibreOffice, and it can be opened by OpenOffice.  But if for some strange
reason LibreOffice is unhappy with the format, it shouldn't just crash.
