Description zoftig39587 2014-05-17 06:48:59 UTC

In Ubuntu 12.04 LTS image copied from Earthlink webmail hangs writer when pasted.  Same image copied from Gimp or inserted from .jpg file appears normally. Note to self: Paste image into Gimp first then copy paste into writer.

Noted: Page count jumped from 1 to 11/12.  About 15 minutes later random red wavy underlines appeared in writer window and Ubuntu hung.  Is repeatable except I usually rebooted sooner than 15 minutes.  I was reading man kill to attempt stopping writer from a terminal.

Thanks for reporting.

Can you please retest using a more recent version of LibreOffice? (http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/)

You also can use the PPA packages (https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa) to stay up to date.

Thanks!
Joren

Textless message likely due to save after changing version exibiting the problem from incorrect 3.6.7.2 to correct 3.5.7.2  
Jorendc,

I must confess to accidentlly misreporting the original version number.  It is 3.5.7.2.  I found it as 3.6.7.2 on the bug report page.  I appear to have changed that.   I installed 4.2.4.2 and copying directly from webmail works as expected.  After copying the same image from both gimp and webmail successfully, I saved the file and opened it in 3.5.7.2 also successfully.  After successfully copying from Gimp an attempt to copy paste from webmail into 3.5.7.2 incremented the page count from 4 to 13/14 and ultimately 22 in about 15 minutes before freezing Ubuntu 12.04.  

Thanks for your request.  Paste now works as expected.  I didn't expect such rapid improvement.
