pozvanka.doc

I have found a .docx file saved as .doc file on public web which does not work on LibreOffice.  I expect it works on MS-Office.

Original link:
   https://www.jankratochvil.net/t/pozvanka.doc
   Content-Type: application/msword
   When clicked in Firefox as is or when opened from disk file as .doc:
   The file 'pozvanka.doc' is corrupt and therefore cannot be opened.
   LibreOffice can try to repair the file.
   The corruption could be the result of document manipulation or of structural
   document damage due to data transmission.
   We recommend that you do not trust the content of the repaired document.
   Execution of macros is disabled for this document.
   Should LibreOffice repair the file?
   [Yes]
     The file 'pozvanka.doc' could not be repaired and therefore cannot be
     opened.
     [OK]
     General Error
     [OK]
     <ooffice quits>
   [No]
     The file 'pozvanka.doc' could not be repaired and therefore cannot be
     opened.
     [OK]
     <File gets correctly opened and oofice runs fine.>
Corrected link:
   https://www.jankratochvil.net/t/pozvanka.docx
   Content-Type:
       application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
   When clicked in Firefox as is or when opened from disk file as .docx:
   <File gets correctly opened and oofice runs fine.>

I can open the file without any problems on v4.2.8.2/4.3.7.2/4.4.5.2/5.0.0.4 under mint 17.2 x64 and v4.4.5.2 under windows7 x64.
Comment 2 Jan Kratochvil 2015-07-31 20:29:45 UTC 
That is unexpected when you write you tested 4.3.7.2.
I have here only Fedora 21 x86_64: libreoffice-4.3.7.2-9.fc21.x86_64
Comment 3 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2015-07-31 20:45:00 UTC 
No problem to open this file with Version: 5.0.1.0.0+
Build ID: f1333692475201ce1be7a037397158051d8bd039
Built at home under Ubuntu_15.04_x86-64 with GCC 5.1
Locale : fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8)

No problem too with all versions starting from 4.0.6

Best regards. JBF

I will re-file it to Fedora Bugzilla then.
