--- Comment #16 from helplibreoff...@mailcatch.com ---
Instead of responding to Joel Madero and Norbert Thiebaud with the same
atrocious nastiness and hostility that they each decided to exhibit (shame on
you both), I chose to dedicate my time to peacefully testing LibreOffice to
find what is actually causing it to crash so often.

I successfully found the root cause of the bug that all the crashtesting VMs
and fuzzers were not able to find.  The root cause of the bug would cascade,
causing LibreOffice Calc to generate an Access Violation.  By narrowing it down
to the root cause, the Access Violation can be avoided, but LibreOffice Calc
will still crash each and every time.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open LibreOffice Calc v5.0.4.1
2. Enter 1 into A1
3. Enter 0 into A2
4. Select A1
5. Go to Format->Conditional Formatting->Icon Set
6. In the resultant dialog box, change the yellow arrow row to "=A2" and
"Formula", and then click OK
7. Select A2
8. Go to Format->Conditional Formatting->Icon Set
9. In the resultant dialog box, change the yellow arrow row to "=A1" and
"Formula", and then click OK
10. Save the spreadsheet
11. Close LibreOffice Calc
12. LIBREOFFICE CALC WILL NOW CRASH
13. Open the saved file in LibreOffice Calc
14. Close LibreOffice Calc
15. LIBREOFFICE CALC WILL NOW CRASH, JUST BY EXITING LIBREOFFICE CALC
16. Repeat steps 13-14
17. LIBREOFFICE CALC WILL CRASH EACH TIME

Note that even if many edits are performed in the spreadsheet between steps 13
and 14, LibreOffice Calc will still crash.  To one of my clients, it made it
look like each edit was causing another crash.  In fact, as steps 16-17
demonstrate, simply opening the file and then closing LibreOffice Calc will
result in a crash.

Based on the behavior of Joel Madero and Norbert Thiebaud, I will no longer be
making my annual financial donation to The Document Foundation.  After
witnessing the treatment I received, I doubt any of my clients will continue to
donate.

Although I will no longer be contributing financially, I hope this bug report
will help improve the LibreOffice project.
