1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc
libreoffice-calc:
  Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
  Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
  Version table:

3) What is expected to happen with LibreOffice Calc via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/418073/+attachment/678460/+files/off1%20USCA%20C1%20radius%20and%20line%20dist%20asym.xls && localc -nologo off1\ USCA\ C1\ radius\ and\ line\ dist\ asym.xls

and it opens quickly and successfully.

4) What happens instead is it hangs seemingly indefinitely (at least 10 minutes).

Tried with OOo 3.3.0 on Windows XP 32x, hung for 36 minutes and opened the file read-only.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

tested under Win7x64

LibO 4.2.5.2 hangs and has to be killed after minutes of freezing

LibO 4.4.0.0.alpha0+ (*) opens the file after 12 seconds

so the hang issue is RESOLVED WORKSFORME in master.
