Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  1)  lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-impress
  libreoffice-impress:
    Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0

       1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0

  3) What is expected to happen in Impress via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/541919/+attachment/1208864/+files/slide31.ppt
  && loimpress -nologo slide31.ppt

  and the slide opens successfully.

  4) What happens instead is it hangs indefinitely.

  WORKAROUND: Open file using Microsoft Office PowerPoint via WINE.

  Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 (11.5529.6505)

  apt-cache policy wine1.3

  Original Reporter Comments: I isolated the problem to two slides that
  contain just a single object - a plot created in MS Excel. Attempting
  to import either slide as a one-slide presentation hangs indefinitely.
