Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
When I open some presentations (Microsoft Powerpoint .pps files) in read-only mode, OpenOffice automatically starts the fullscreen slideshow of the presentation. Now when I hit the Escape key to exit the fullscreen slideshow, or right-click on the slideshow and select 'End show', OpenOffice Impress immediately crashes. I tried running 'ooimpress My_presentation' on the commandline to see if OpenOffice prints any useful error, but it prints nothing. I've attached one example presentation that induces ooimpress to crash on my system here. I should mention that I'm running no unusual software or service that I can think of, that might conflict with OpenOffice.

Strange ... this happens for me with LibreOffice 3.3, but OpenOffice 3.3 doesn't seem to have this bug.
