Example text documents that crash writer
Hello,
LibreOffice Writer is consistently crashing when I try to open a certain text
document (attached). The document itself is simple, one page, just text, no
macros whatsoever.
So far I think I nailed the bug down to the following specifics.
Preparation:
LibreOffice 25.8.3.2 must be installed (Ubuntu and Fedora tested)
Hyphenation for German and English must be installed
Procedure:
1) Opening the attached document Example_instantcrash.odt instantly crashes
LibreOffice Writer (if hyphenation-de and hyphenation-en is installed).
2) Opening the attached document Example_crash_aptos.odt is a bit more
interesting.
a) For example, open Example_crash_aptos.odt, set your cursor to the 7nd line
within the document, behind nu (from nubb). Typing a few characters crashes
LibreOffice Writer instantly.
b) Extract the attached fonts (Aptos) (or download them from Microsoft if you
don't trust the package) and put them into the .fonts-folder in the home
directory (make sure Aptos is not installed system-wide or in any other
relevant places). Opening the document file Example_crash_aptos.odt then leads
to an instant crash of Libreoffice Writer as well.
So, the crash, as far as I can tell, seems to be a mix of hyphenation issues,
as well as hyphenation-issues in combination with certain fonts. I could not
reproduce it with a 25.2-Version but all 25.8-Versions I tried so far seem to
be affected.
Thanks to the LO team for their dedication
