Description Francisco 2015-05-27 14:44:17 UTC 
Writer 5.0b1 crashes every time I try to copy unformatted text I had in my clipboard into a blank document.

Steps:
1) Copy some dummy text from any place. It could be your browser.
2) Open a Writer blank document.
3) In "Standard toolbar", click the dropdown arrows of the Paste button
3b) Select "Unformatted text"

Result:
Writer crashes

Expected:
No crash


I'm running Kubuntu 14.04 x86_64.

I have more information about this bug. It seems that any "dropdown" menu will crash LibreOffice, either Writer, Calc, Draw, etc.

And specifically, it seems that dropdown lists are the problem:

*Paste special
*Open recent
*Dropdown menus in navigator

All of them leads to a crash after click in the arrow to make appear the menu, and click on any other place.

5.0 beta2 will be released very soon. Please test with it and report here. Many crashes were fixed since beta1.
I will set to NEEDINFO in the mean time.

Thanks for testing. Let's set to WFM as we don't know what fixed it.
