[Bug 519541] Re: Abiword 2.8.1 freezes with document lost when help is clicked or F1 is pressed
Updated description with test case etc. to fit SRU-policy
** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: abiword
+ PROBLEM
Every time help is clicked, including all items under Help in the menu,
except 'About Abiword', Abiword freezes and the document you are working
in is lost.
+
+ TEST CASE
+
+ 1. Launch Abiword
+ 2. Press [F1]
+ * Abiword locks up
+
+ PATCH
+
+ Patch by Michal Schmidt from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=554899#c12 seems to fix this issue. Patch comment:
+ "remove harmful calls to xml{Init,Cleanup}Parser. Do not call xmlCleanupParser() ever to prevent TLS data corruption. And it seems that xmlInitParser() is not needed either, as libxml2 calls it itself when it's needed."
+ ...And were not originally related to the specific crash reported here (it seems).
