again. BPO is not in the scope of this BTS and the BTS does not know
about this version for tracking versions which have the bug or not.
Marking as found in 2.4.0-4 although not knowing whether it happens in
lenny/sid, too...
Try it in sid/lenny please before reporting a bug..

In which you didn't submit any info with which the author can debug it.
And in this bug you didn't either.

No one even remotely cares about OOo 1.1.5 anymore.

Then you should give out documents to get the authors debug it. Not just
filing bugs which rot because no one can test. (like #471348).
That said, I do not have *any* SO 5.2 documents here to try, and I'd bet
anyway that it just happens for some documents, not all.
