[ooo-build] OpenOffice Writer crashes when resizing a table

[Ricardo L. Febrero]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Open the document attached. It was copied from the Web. Then, try to resize the table at the top (expanding it to the right side). Application should hang, as happens in every attempt I have made.

For more information, I think it has something to do with when it tries to download some image from the Internet (it uses some embedded images). When this happens, at the beginning of the editing process, is when it hangs, not only when resizing the table, which has maybe nothing to do with the bug. So it hangs just some seconds before opening, and it's not necessary to do anything to make it crash.

This appears to work on upstream's 2.4.0 but 1:2.4.1-1ubuntu1 still crashes. However the Ubuntu version now crashes trying to open the document. This appears to be an ooo-build problem.
