Bug Description
1) Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
2) LibreOffice 3.5.7.2, Build ID: 350m1(Build:2), probably package 1:3.5.7-0ubuntu4 but apt-cache reports none
3) Edit and save DOCX file
open DOCX file
edit DOCX file
save DOCX file
close
open the file
4) the file is truncated
e.g., 9 pages instead of 16 but it can truncate anywhere on the page
It is actually known bug at
https:/
but I think that it is important to also backported into 12.04 LTS once it is fixed (or at least some warning that 'this really does not works' is added) since data loss is critical. File to reproduce it is provided at freedesktop ticket.
The latest version of LibrreOffice is 4.1, I haven't tested if this happen there too.
