After updating to 4.0.4.2 updating links to external files in master document causes writer to crash.  This happens both on open and selecting update links.  Also if you update external links after opening the master document causes crash.

Worked properly before updating.

Files are zipped and attached

No crash for me under Linux / Ubuntu 12.04 x86-64. I did tests with both LO 4.0.4 and LO 4.1.0.

Please could you confirm which version you are using, 4.0.4 or 4.1.0 ?

Sorry about the mixup on the version at first.  I was using version 4.0.4.2 on OSX, Windows 7, and Windows 8 all crashed with the file I provided earlier. 

While I have Ubantu 12.04 I could not try it on there since I have LibreOffice 3 on that machine. Thus I could not try it.

I upgraded to the latest version 4.1.0.4 on OSX, Windows 7&8 and have successfully opened the file and updated the indexes on open with out LibreOffice crashing.

Master document is ower loadet if the same master document is loadet. There will be a continus loop in the loading of the master document.
