bt with debug symbols

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated yesterday, I could reproduce this.
Comment 2 Julien Nabet 2021-03-07 09:04:29 UTC
I could reproduce this too with LO Debian package 7.0.4.2 => update version (since it's the earliest affected for the moment)

second bt with debug symbols

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today + a patch to fix the assesrtion https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/112118, I got another assertion this time which will indeed lead to a crash.

(The first retrieved assertion doesn't lead to a crash since it's just a control)

Maybe this is a Linux only problem?  Have been using "Apply and Edit Changes" in Windows without problem (See bug 139953).
Comment 5 Julien Nabet 2021-03-07 09:46:23 UTC
After digging a bit, I submitted a second patch to fix the other bt but it concerns only French UI since it fails at line 670:
    662     if ( rCC.getLanguageTag().getLanguage() == "fr" )
    663     {
    664         bool bFrCA = (rCC.getLanguageTag().getCountry() == "CA");
    665         OUString allChars = ":;?!%";
    666         OUString chars( allChars );
    667         if ( bFrCA )
    668             chars = ":";
    669 
    670         sal_Unicode cChar = rTxt[ nEndPos ];

so in the "if ( rCC.getLanguageTag().getLanguage() == "fr" )" block and you use Locale: it-IT (en_GB.UTF-8); UI: en-GB

To start from a good basis, could you apply https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps
then if you still reproduce the crash try to retrieve a backtrace?
