Bug Description

Opening the file works, i can make changes, but as soon as i try to save in any format (ods , sxc , xls) Calc crashes.
This bug has been reproduced on 2 different Breezy installations.
The file works on Hoary, WinXP (with Excel, OOo 1.12, OOo V1.9.65 and OOo 2.0 Final) and Knoppix.
I will upload the original xls - file to http://profimedia.net/ubuntu/badxls.xls
Thank you all,
Richard

Extra:
This happens also with impress and wmf files (output on command line while crashing is
"*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0852da20 ***"
)
.

One solution found was doing "export MALLOC_CHECK_=2" before running openoffice. This is presumably a workaround and not a fix. The WMF functionality works fine in the openoffice on fedora, so it is a ubuntuspecific bug!

Dennis, I kindly ask you not to reject reports without investigating. There is not yet a final 2.0.x release in breezy.
