Description: When you try to open a recently opened file (the dropdown arrow from the FILEOPEN icon), from an empty calc spreadsheet, the program freezes and within the next few seconds fills up your whole RAM, everything, until your pc is unusable and you have to restart the pc. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Calc. You are in a an empty spreadsheet. 2. Click the dropdown arrow next to the file-open icon. 3. Watch your memory get filled up and your pc get unusable if you don't manage to quickly kill the process. I reproduced this on both my personal and my company pc (after a fresh install of linux mint). Actual Results: LO freezes and your memory gets filled up, freezing your pc when it is full. Expected Results: At least for the program to crash and not jeopardizing all unsaved data on the pc. Ideally the recently opened file should just load. Either next to the unsaved new doc, but it can be assumed that the empty spreadsheet can be discarded if empty. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info:
Thank you for reporting the bug. it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Hello Xisco Faulí, thank you for the quick reply. I didn't want to upgrade my base latest linux-mint libreoffice version, but after installing now the new 6.2.5, I am happy to say that this bug is not there anymore. Thank you. ps: Although I am still sad that the 6.0.7 is still the default libre-office version even in the new linux-mint 19.2. I'm afraid that many people could face this issue.
