Dmitry Smirnov has been fixing a lot of bugs in Quantal abiword, from the changelog:
abiword (2.9.2+svn20120603-4) unstable; urgency=low * new backported patches: + r31490_fix-crash-if-inserting-a-footnote.patch + r31566_rearrange-date-and-time-formats.patch + r31576_remove-separator-from-insert-dialogs.patch + r31748_fix-crash-with-copy-paste.patch + r31749_fix-bug-with-copy-paste.patch + r31753_fix-crash-on-paste.patch + r31755_fix-crash-with-create-and-modify-styles-dialog.patch + r31767_fix-possible-crash.patch + r31768_correct-horizontal-scroll-limit.patch + r31842_fix-crash-13401.patch + r31843_prevent-crash.patch + r31847_fix-program-hanging-during-paste-unformatted.patch * old backported patches are renamed to have revision number in file name. * lintian-override for 'no-symbols-control-file' (not useful for CPP). -- Dmitry Smirnov <[email protected]> Fri, 24 Aug 2012 11:09:56 +1000 abiword (2.9.2+svn20120603-3) unstable; urgency=low * Replace no-dbl-buf.patch with backported fix-dbl-buff.patch to fix 'Paste Unformatted' and re-enable double buffering. -- Dmitry Smirnov <[email protected]> Fri, 17 Aug 2012 20:16:51 +1000 abiword (2.9.2+svn20120603-2) unstable; urgency=low * build verbosity increased with --disable-silent-rules * lintian-overrides: + 'hardening-no-fortify-functions' (false-positives). + 'dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink' (libabiword-2.9.so is a library, not a symlink). * new patches: + format-hardening.patch to avoid FTBFS on --with-gtk2 build. + fix-wheel-scrolling.patch (Closes: #672149). + fix-paste.patch (backported) with fix for "Crash on unicode character paste" (Closes: #681060). + no-dbl-buf.patch to disable double buffering in order to prevent crash on 'Paste Unformatted'. -- Dmitry Smirnov <[email protected]> Fri, 17 Aug 2012 11:08:23 +1000 So I'd appreciate everyone that is familiar with abiword to test the puddin' out of it over the next week or so ;^) It looks good to me but my use of a word processor is fairly mundane. Lance PS: I wonder if Nicholas would want to share this with Xubuntu QA? PPS: If this seems stable enough in Quantal then I'll try to get the updates into 12.04 proposed :^)
