Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Package: openoffice.org-impress

Filename: pool/main/o/openoffice.org/openoffice.org-impress_2.1-4ubuntu1_i386.deb

Hello,
I and many ubuntu feisty users got an error when trying to save a presentation in OO-impress.when we open any presentation or even empty file and try to exit and if we say save or discard either,Impress poped a error message as follows in a window:

"Due to an unexpected error,OpenOffice.org crashed.All the files you were working on will be saved now.Then next time OpenOffice.org will be launched,your files will be recovered automatically.

The following files will be recovered:

^^ No files though shown.if i press OK.it exits and opens a new Openoffice.org-writer without any calling title as usual Untitle 1.
I tried opening from terminal :

prakash@ubuntu:~$ ooffice -impress
but i cant trace anything.
So i tried :
prakash@ubuntu:~$ soffice
/usr/share/themes/Blubuntu/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:169: Clearlooks configuration option "progressbarstyle" is not supported and will be ignored.
/usr/share/themes/Blubuntu/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:169: Clearlooks configuration option "progressbarstyle" is not supported and will be ignored.
^ but that doesnt seems to help.so please fix this bug.

I can also confirm this bug.

I can recreate the bug in the following steps:

1) Start OpenOffice Impress
2) Open a existing slideshow or create an empty slideshow
3) Start the presentation in the full screen mode by pressing F5
4) Close the full screen mode by pressing escape
5) Close OpenOffice Impress

Then I get the error messages as described by Prakash J Kokkatt.

Confirm it again I Gutsy. With "Redmond" and "Thin Ice" themes, OOImpress can not launch, and ask for file recover, which not files could.
