Description gamesh.g 2014-03-24 16:59:49 UTC
Problem description: 

If I start loimpress and select "Empty presentation" at the dialogue then "Create" the application briefly appears then crashes.

This does not happen if I open an existing presentation or if I create a new presentation while another document (spreadsheet, presentation or  is already open. It does not happen for localc or for lowriter, just loimpress.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Close all libreoffice windows.
2. Start loimpress
3. Select "Empty presentation"
4. Press "Create"

Current behavior:

loimpress application briefly appears then immediately crashes.


Expected behavior:

loimpress opens with a blank presentation document.

Is this bug still valid / reproducible with the latest LO release?  Currently 4.2.2: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/

Please also try resetting your user profile and let us know if that helps: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile

Should this be still reproducible for you with the latest LO release please set this bug back to UNCONFIRMED. Should this issue be solved set it to WORKSFORME.

Setting to NEEDINFO until more detail is provided.
