Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org-writer

Reproduce this way:

1. In a multi paragraph document, select some paragraph, but not all of them. End the selection before the end of the last selected paragraph.

2. Menu: Edit - Find and replace

3. Set find=$, leave replace blank, then hit "more options" and select "regular expression" (the "actual selection" checkbox is checked)

4. Hit the "replace all" button

The result is that the paragraph marks are removed, as expected.

The bug is that, unfortunatly, also the paragraph mark after the end of the selection is removed.
