The way libreoffice handles duplicate slide *names* has bugs.
In attachment 128104 all the slides are named something like "Linearis
optimaizalas".
You can confirm this by right-clicking on any slide in the slide sorter on the
left and select "rename slide".
I think under the hood it is really starting the slideshow from the first slide
with the same *slide name* as the currently selected slide name. i.e. it's not
saying "start on slide 4" it's saying start on slide "Linearis optimaizalas".
Since all the slides have the same name, the first slide that matches that name
is always slide #1.
I notice that newer versions of libreoffice prevent you from renaming a slide
to the same name as an existing slide. It greys out the save button with no
explanation to the user as to why you can't choose that name.
Interestingly if I duplicate a slide (e.g. the 6th slide) it will give it a
name "Slide 7". Fine...but if I try to rename one of the "Linearis
optimaizalas" slides as "Slide 8" (even though there is no slide with this
name) it prevents it as well. But...if I duplicate the "Side 7" slide...guess
what, it creates the new slide name as "Slide 8".
I am getting deja vu of past crashes. Often after duplicating a slide, doing
basic edits, and then saving. Maybe a clever dev can check if this
mis-handling of duplicate slide names has problems elsewhere in the code.
