Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I use Ubuntu 7.04 32 bit. After having installed Microsoft true type
fonts (via synaptic) I can reproduce a crash of Writer 2.2 / German
(Ubuntu package) through doing the following mudane thing:

1. Open a new Writer document
2. Select "Times New Roman" or "Arial" if you like
3. Type a youple of random characters, e. g. "gjhgjhg"
4. go to "Insert | Special character | Times New Roman"
5. Just mark one x1 and then scroll a bit with the wheel of the mouse up and 
down

=> The result: OpenOffice crashes.

I have Athlon 3000+, 512 MB RAM, Gigabyte nForce3, 83 MB HD on one of my
machines, and Athlon 3500+, 1024 MB RAM, MSI nForce5 on another machine.
The crash of Writer can be reproduced on either machine.

I hope this will help.
Best regards
