No crash for me with LO 4.2.1.0.0+ and the master on Ubuntu 13.10 x86-64
File opens fine and the slideshow runs well.

Are you sure that your downloaded file is not corrupted? The size of the file I downloaded is 4 736 894 octets.

Note:  4.2.0.4 rc is exactly 4.2.0.4 release.

Best regards. JBF

Please reopen if this persist.

So you did already try with the latest nightly as well? Also please redownload the file to make sure no corruption happened during the download.

@Foss : 4.2.0.2 is the last know-working version, so I'm glad it works there. 

@Jean-Baptiste Faure : It's working with the 4.3 (same as 4.2.1.0.0+ you mention ?) 

I maybe wasn't precise enough : the only bugged version is 4.2.0.4 rc. 

As I said in the description, I couldn't choose "4.2.0.4 rc" for the latest version appeared because the website gave me this error : "There is no version named '4.2.0.4 rc' in the 'LibreOffice' product.".
Also I couldn't choose "4.2.0.2" for the last known-working version because it wasn't in the drop-down list. 

NB : file is not corrupted

So you should try with the first RC of version 4.2.1 when it will be available.

Note: version 4.2.1.0.0+ is the development version of branch 4.2. The master will give the next branch 4.3.

tested under Win7x64bit

crash with 4.2.0.4
no crash with 4.1.5.3 and 4.3.0.0.alpha0+ (*)

so let's hope forthcoming 4.2.1.1 won't crash

It doesn't crash in 4.2.1.1 and later (under Windows 7).
