Description:

When used to open a PPT file, Openoffice crashes and exits immediately after importing it. If run from the console, this error message is produced:

X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
Major opcode: 53 (X_CreatePixmap)
Resource ID: 0x3200743
Serial No: 10312 (10312)
These errors are reported asynchronously,
set environment variable SAL_SYNCHRONIZE to 1 to help debugging


Additional info:
* openoffice-base 2.3.0-4


Steps to reproduce:

1. Run Openoffice (base, Impress, etc.; it doesn't matter).
2. Use ctrl-o/the menu/etc. to open any PPT file. As soon as it is finished importing the file, Openoffice should crash.

please check for upstream bugreports or file one if it's not yet done. give me the link please. please test also the package from unstable if it happens there too.

i cannot reproduce it with the ppt files i have.

please test if it still happens in 2.3.1 testing packages and also try the one from the unstable repo. but i think it is(was?) just an upstream issue.
