A pptx file which is crashing.

LibreOffice is crashing when opening pptx files. It is crashing before loading the file itself. It happened with two documents.

These pptx documents are opening well with MS Office and also Kisgsoft Office.

These pptx files contain smart art (created using ms office), which i suspect is the cause of the problem as LibreOffice does not have smart art feature yet.

Tried with LibO 3.3.4, 3.4.5, and 3.5.1 Beta2 on Windows XP / Vista 64.

No crash.

LibO 3.3.4 and 3.4.5 - smart art missing.

Libo 3.5.1 Beta 2 - not bad (compared to Word 2007), but slides 5, 6, and 9 display the following text:

Click to edit master styles
-Second level
   - Third level
      - [and so on]

So I confirm there are problems - but no crash for me.

With 3.5 branch (so not exactly 3.5.0) on pc Debian x86-64, I didn't reproduce crash. However, I had exactly what s-joyemusequna had.

We need more info here :
- which environment ?
- could you uninstall LO completely (remove or backup your LO profile if needed) and reinstall ? If on Windows, after uninstalling, clean your registry with a free tool like ccleaner.

[NOT REPRODUCIBLE] i.e. no crash on Windows XP:
* 3.5.3 RC1
* daily build Win-x86@6-fast, pull time 2012-05-08 21.43.52, Build ID: 7f3f6e4
