It's absolutely worse that what is describe on 3.4.3 version

If the document used was created by a previous version, trying to edit
an existing charts remove all references to the data series sources.

The previous data, sometimes exist but as a table, like if they were
copied from the initial data series.

On columns chart type with 3.4.3 the data source is killed, and then
there's no way for the users to retrieve it. Even ctrl+Z doesn't restore
the chart.

-> Data corruption ! You need to use a previous version of the document
if it saved, there's no more data.

See the different print-screen attached.

This as been tested and confirmed under Linux 64bits (openSUSE 11.4 /
12.1 ) + windows 7 64bits, and windows xp 32 bits (legacy LOO.exe
installer)

Initial source document with charts, which was created by a 3.x version

In this document there several charts and data sources that are used to create the chart.
Editing or adding charts with 3.x version of Loo works as expected
Editing or adding a chart with 3.4.3 version crash the column type graph

see other screenshots

Editing a curve series (double click + right click ) give good results

If you try to edit the first graph in proposed document
you get the right click menu about editing the data ranges

Have a look how is presented the second graph now.

Trying to edit a column chart lead to data source destruction

Now on a column chart, we try what was done previously.
once you double clic on it for editing the chart is exploded.

and in place we have a chart data table ?
The chart is totally destroyed

If the user, or the auto-save function save the document at that time,
the document is destroyed. And need to be recovered from a backup!

I change the level of priority, due to the fact that document is
destroyed and can't be saved.

Now if you try to add a new column chart graph with the wizard it ask
you to select the data ranges. which appear the first time, but if you
click on the tab data series you see all is empty (expected) then you
click back on the range selection and this one is empty too !!!!

If dev can't reproduce it, I can run it on a gdb session and give a traceback
(I've all debuginfo installed)
