Rene,

Thanks for the response. Sorry this came through twice. The first report had some typos in it. I'm glad you merged them.

Apologies also if I didn't understand the severity rating system properly. It seemed to me this bug did render the openoffice.org-gnome vfs interface unusable - although I accept smb isn't the only protocol gnome vfs provides - however as I thought it was the function of this package to provide the gnome-vfs interface, this was why I rated it as grave.

Sorry again, I don't have sid available for testing. I wasn't aware there were OO builds on backports.org, but I will try these.

Nonsense. It does not render the full office suite unusable that you
can't write to some particular place.

To reproduce this bug, I load oowriter, create a new empty document,
go to File->Save As and type in a samba share e.g.
'smb://machine/myshare' and hit enter.
When the samba share loads up in the dialog, I then double-click on any
subdirectory. At this point openoffice crashes with error. Sometimes it
crashes on first calling up of 'smb://machine/myshare'. The error message is always like e.g.:

*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb74f76e0 ***

N.B. I can reproduce this bug identically on two etch machines (and have

And on sid? And with the OOo from www.backports.org on etch?

Instead my guess is that we have a bug in the structures created by
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/ucpgvfs1.uno.so - which would make this an
openoffice.org-gnome bug.

Maybe, there at least were fixes there in the development after 2.0.4
iirc.

[ And why are you filing this two times? ]
