[Bug 919877] [NEW] Crypto failure in oneiric-proposed LibreOffice

 

Public bug reported:

I recently upgraded to the oneiric-proposed LibreOffice package
(1:3.4.5-0ubuntu1) -- and then found two symptoms of a crypto problem.
I was able to fix the problem by downgrading back to oneiric-updates
(1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1).

1.  A .odt document file that I had previously saved with a password
could no longer be opened under LibreOffice Writer.  It kept giving me
the "incorrect password" error message, even though I was 100% sure I
was giving the right password.

2.  I tried creating a NEW .odt file for test purposes and saving it
with a password.  I checked the "Save with Password" box and entered a
password.  Then it gave me a message saying something like "crypto
problem -- could not save."  I could not get the Save to work with a
password.

Downgrading to oneiric-updates fixed both symptoms.  Fortunately, my
password-encrypted file was not lost.

Would you please debug this problem before releasing the current
oneiric-proposed LibreOffice to general usage.

Thanks!
