Hello DJ Lucas,

Thank you for your build instruction. It works for me, besides some problems
related to Impress and templates. Impress will crash when selecting a template.

Test:
1) Start simpress. The presentation wizard starts.
2) Select "From template". 3) OpenOffice crashes when the "From template" tick box is selected.

Actually, I've found it to be related to having the 'preview' box checked..however, it still crashes on completion even if the preview box is not checked...so it's in the generation.

Can you reproduce this crash?

I can start Impress if I select "empty presentation" and "create".

Please note:
I have applied one extra patch, besides the ones used in your build
instruction, since I had another impress problem with a crash triggered by
selecting a layout. (I did a manual edit of forbiddencharacterstable.cxx).
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=54233. The patch solved this particular problem for me.


Well, I haven't tried the above patch yet, though judging from what I am now seeing and the bug report attached to it, this looks like it may needed. Thanks. It's in my currently running build along with a few others. My new problem is that the preview in the template wizard for impress now works (where it had crashed before), but it still crashes at random in the same manor. After it crashes only once, it returns to the old behaviour. I was able to complete the wizard once (even at a normal pace where I browsed through the options) and see my selections in the full sized presentation window, which then crashed upon clicking on it. These are the few additional patches that I'm reviewing now:

from RedHat:
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/openoffice.org/openoffice.org-1.9.84.ooo44843.sdcasting.patch?rev=1.3&view=markup

from ooo-build current:
svx-dynamic-const-cast.diff  svx-freeze-fix.diff

from upstream:
changes in sd/source/ui/dlg/dlgass.cxx rev 1.33

This link may be nice to have too: http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/openoffice.org/

Thanks again.
