[Troy James Sobotka <troy.sobotka@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sun's Java 1.6.0_12 selected under Options->Java fails as well.

Testing with lower versions.

@Matteo:
Is there a clean way to test the debs from oo.org as opposed to a manual installation of all 16 or so of them?  Thanks for your help.

[jaunty] DATA LOSS: openoffice oobase reports SIGSEGV in openjdk-6 when saving a report

Bug description:
See attached logfile.

Using oobase with openjdk-6 is a pain. First, CPU is almost always at 100% when editing reports. Second, opening a report in editing mode, dragging around a few fields, adding a couple of lines, saving the report, and trying to close the report editingwindow, results in a crash.

Should be considered severe, since ooo isn't always able to restore the .odb file, or restores it correctly (and then the tables have no records!!!). I would have lost almost 1100 company contacts this way, if I had not kept a Microsoft Excel (yuck!) spreadsheet with the data.
