Description kurt.nordback@protonmail.com 2025-09-18 22:12:38 UTC
Description:
Commit f3e728aead1efc65d8b51b67bf9c14b1616d468c broke round-tripping of some files with charts. (MS Office will still load the resulting file, but it requests to "repair" it.)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In LibreOffice, open one of the attached .xlsx files (which were created in MS Office).
2. Save to .xlsx format.
3. Open the re-saved file in MS Office.

Actual Results:
MSO displays a pop-up asking to repair the file.

Expected Results:
MSO opens the file without needing to "repair" it.


Reproducible: Always
