Description jumu130 2014-08-19 19:22:13 UTC
Since Version 4.3.x LO crashes if you start a line with

(123)(456)(789) ab

It doesn't make any difference if you use () or [] or {}. If you write letters into the brackets everything is fine, just one letter in one of the brackets is enough. If the brackets are empty or filled with numbers or hyphens or spaces LO will crash when you write the second letter behind the third pair of brackets. Very curious.
I only discovered this bug because I opened an old file (written with LO 4.2.4.2) with a corresponding sequence of brackets, numbers and letters.
All components (LO-Writer, LO-Calc, LO-Draw etc.) are affected.
I use Debian testing (Jessie).

I can't reproduce with Win7, have you tried resetting the user profile?, sometimes solves strange issues.

It's a new installation and if I downgrade back to version 4.2.4.2 using the existing profile everything is fine again.

On pc Debian x86-64, here are the results I had:

With LO 4.0.3.4 Debian package, I could reproduce the crash.

With 4.3 sources updated 4 days ago, I don't reproduce the crash.

For the test, could you give a try with 4.3 daily build (see http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/libreoffice-4-3/Win-x86@42/current/) or more simply with 4.3.1RC1 (see http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/)?
Comment 5 jumu130 2014-08-20 16:36:15 UTC
With LO Pre-Release Version: 4.3.1.1
Build ID: c4b15cd4d00dec6b266fa830b4ba73e31ae6ce73
I get the same crash even with a new user profile.

jumu130@gmx.de: sorry to hear this :-( So, if you've got some time, the last chance could be the daily build (see my previous comment). Of course, it's just for the test since I don't expect you keep this beta version.
Comment 7 jumu130 2014-08-21 15:37:15 UTC
With Version

4.3.2.0.0+

Thank you for your feedback. Let's put this one to WFM (by precising the targets).
