LibreOffice Calc Page preview crashes. soffice.bin crashed with SIGABRT in os::abort()

[GT]

This is the bug as described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/900284

Calc always crashes when clicking on File → Page Preview.

Detailed description: Calc crashes when clicking on File → Page Preview. These
crashes are 100% reproducible with all files, even with an empty spreadsheet.
Doing some testing, I figured out that this issue only occurs in the Gnome 3
environment. In Unity, Calc does not crash.

My system: Ubuntu 11.10 64-Bit, Gnome 3 shell, LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1
(Build:402) (the default version of Ubuntu).

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Aldi, do you have the lo-menubar installed?

[GT (gleppert)]

Hi Christopher, do you mean this extension (please see screenshot as attached)? If so, yes, the extension "menubar" is installed on my system. I guess it was installed by default. I have not selected it for installation.

Could the menubar be the reason for the crash?

"Could the menubar be the reason for the crash?"

Based on the crash scenario this may be another variant of https://bugs.launchpad.net/lo-menubar/+bug/754562 . If you remove the menubar extension, can you click Page Preview without LO crashing?

Hi Christopher, I will do some more testing, but so far, it did not crash again after de-installation of menubar. Thanks.

I did some more testing. After de-installation of lo-menubar, there was no crash again. This solved the problem for me.
Thanks!
