Hi all, Thanks to Alexandre's help I was able to reproduce these problems on my machine and, after much digging around in the code, was able to find a solution that fixes the bugs on my system.
I have uploaded a library here for you to test: http://people.debian.org/~halls/openoffice/test/libpsp645li.so.bz2 Please bunzip into /usr/lib/openoffice/program, replacing the existing library there. For the record, here is a short explaination of the problem: When reproducing the crasher in impress->format->character->change tab, valgrind reports that memory is being read that has already been deleted: Address 0x1CC6F654 is 20 bytes inside a block of size 92 free'd [...] by 0x8086B16: operator delete(void*) (in soffice.bin) by 0x21811850: SdDrawDocShell::SetPrinter(SfxPrinter*) (in libsd645li.so) by 0x216FD206: SdWindow::DataChanged(DataChangedEvent const&) (in libsd645li.so) The SetPrinter event is triggered by a SALEVENT_PRINTERCHANGED event which is generated whenever CUPSManager::checkPrintersChanged is called, which does not appear to be correct. Since the 1.1 code does not seem to have been tested with such dynamic printer updates, I have disabled them, and now printer queues are only enumerated on startup.
