Downloaded LIbreOffice 4.2 and installed it. Now, it seems to work. Too bad the "default" LibreOffice for Ubuntu 12.04 is still the version 3.

Now it crashes (and I need it soon!). I have been able to open it in Read-only mode, and copied-pasted just one slide, which contains a custom animation, to generate a test.odp file. I saved it, but i t also crashes when I try to re-open it (the file is attached). I tried with Impress 4.1 and Impress 3. Same problem. See the log file below. Thanks in advance for any hint to solve this issue. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xaa263ea2, pid=17193, tid=3010369344 # # JRE version: 6.0_27-b27 # Java VM: OpenJDK Client VM (20.0-b12 mixed mode, sharing linux-x86 ) # Derivative: IcedTea6 1.12.6 # Distribution: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, package 6b27-1.12.6-1ubuntu0.12.04.4 # Problematic frame: # C [libsdlo.so+0x1fcea2] sd::MotionPathTag::MotionPathTag(sd::CustomAnimationPane&, sd::View&, boost::shared_ptr<sd::CustomAnimationEffect> const&)+0x106 # # If you would like to submit a bug report, please include # instructions how to reproduce the bug and visit: # https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/ # To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1277529/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
