Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
While toying with OOo posix expressions I discovered I can crash any
document by simply starting a regex search for something like
foo[^\[:alpha:\]]
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new writer document (may remain empty)
2. Hit Ctrl+F, check "Regular expressions", search for the above
foo[^\[:alpha:\]]
On my system this will reliably crash soffice.bin. I realize the example
regex is probably not a good idea in the first place, but that shouldn't
crash the application.
