Test Powerpoint

I'm working on a document, in which a paste text from MS-Powerpoint from
MS-Office 365. When I do a simple paste of the text, I get a OLE-object, which
I can't use. So I go back a step and paste it with Shift-Ctrl-v (special-paste)
into the document and choose "unformated text".
When I now close the powerpoint, LO freezes and I loose all since the last
save.

I now have found out, that powerpoint was locked, when I closed it, before I
closed LO. It seems, that LO generates a deadlock with the clipboard. When I
manually kill the powerpoint process, LO works again. When I also close LO
first, the deadlock did not happen.

I add 2 documents to test the situation (Win 7 64 Bit). For tests, do the
following steps:
1. copy the word "test" from test.pptx to LO (Ctrl-c, Ctrl-v)
2. the OLE-Object should be pasted -> Ctrl-z to go back
3. paste again with Shift-Ctrl-v -> unformatted text -> test is pasted
4. close test.pptx -> powerpoint.exe process should remain and LO is locked
5. kill the process -> LO should work again

Sincerely, Markus
