Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I have switched the repositories on one of my machines over to gutsy to start testing 2.19.x. On my fully-updated feisty-gutsy hybrid:

1. Launch OOo Writer
2. Start typing

Expected results: Writer wouldn't crash

Actual results: Writer reliably (100% of the time) crashes after the second character has been typed.

Please note that I am very much aware that gutsy is not officially ready for even "bleeding edge" testing and that perhaps this bug will magically disappear when all of the 2.19 stuff is in place. Filing anyway because a reliable crasher is a reliable crasher. :-) Thanks!
