Description roger griffiths 2013-12-11 23:55:02 UTC
Created attachment 835517 [details]
backtrace (says to attache the coredump, but it is too large!)

Description of problem:
I have several uses of the MEDIAN() function in this spreadsheet, as I enter data libreoffice crashes.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.1.3.2     (release:  8.fc19  )

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
The following simple columns of data will repeatedly cause a crash:
23
8
21
17
27
26

OR:
12
17
6
10
11
10
12

Note, if you sort the data first then use MEDIAN() it correctly determines the value. I have tried this both in separate pages in the spreadsheet, and in a fresh (new) spreadsheet.


Actual results:


Expected results:

I have attempted to submit this via abrt many times, but it will not submit? That is why I did this -- manually. The coredump was too large to upload (124MB)

Comment 2 Eike Rathke 2013-12-12 11:55:55 UTC
Unfortunately I can't reproduce this and the backtrace is incomplete (gdb hung and killed), could you try to generate a complete backtrace?

Comment 3 roger griffiths 2013-12-12 13:21:13 UTC
I have repeated the process several times (same column of data), each time I get a crash. When I review the backtrace, each one ends with:


Timeout exceeded: 240 seconds, killing gdb.
Looks like gdb hung while generating backtrace.
This may be a bug in gdb. Consider submitting a bug report to gdb developers.
Please attach coredump from this crash to the bug report if you do.

I am not sure how to proceed from here, I don't know any options to set in gdb. My system is up2date.

requested backtrace

I generated this backtrace as part of a crash submission. It marked the bug as 1034383 and did not attach the backtrace. So I am adding it here. Additional information: I have tried this same test on 4 different machines, as different users and in different desktops (xfce, gnome, gnome classic); in each case libre office crashes (everytime) when I use MEDIAN() of the column of data [below].

Comment 8 Caolan McNamara 2013-12-13 13:34:07 UTC
hmm...

* Sun Oct 20 2013 Jakub Jelinek <jakub> 4.8.2-2
- update from the 4.8 branch
  - PRs c++/58596, libstdc++/58800
- power8 TImode fix (#1014053, PR target/58673)

which on the face of it would suggest that a rebuild with >= 4.8.2-2 would fix this. But gcc-4.8.2-1 is the latest available pushed to f19 as far as I can see so we don't have anything more recent we can rebuild against.

caolanm->jakub: any workarounds, or plans to push an updated f19 libstdc++-devel ?

Comment 9 Jakub Jelinek 2013-12-17 09:43:00 UTC
Why have you reassigned it to gcc?
Just add karma to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-23419/gcc-4.8.2-7.fc19
and it will be hopefully pushed earlier.  There is also bodhi request for F20, but that one has been already pushed stable, but is likely waiting for F20 release.

Comment 10 Caolan McNamara 2013-12-18 11:10:11 UTC
because when I searched admin I could find no f19 pending update
