Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-calc-2.3.0-6.7.fc8.x86_64 How reproducible: Unknown. Steps to Reproduce: Actual results: OpenOffice crashed. The crash report is attached (from ~/.xsession-errors). Expected results: Additional info:

Hmm, indeed it does seem like some spellchecking related crash, but I can't see why. Perhaps this is restricted to some particular locale or language. What's your default language, i.e. the output of $LANG ?
This *might* be the same as http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=81314
LANG is en_GB.UTF-8 In case it is of value, the spreadsheet was made by copying text from a Microsoft Word document; the text was in Norwegian (Norsk bokmål), and had several spelling mistakes.
If you are allowed to, then attach the spreadsheet, I'd be very interested in seeing if I can reproduce it to verify that it is the above upstream issue
Probably not allowed, as it contained economical information. I was unable to reproduce it myself, though. But then again, I don't know what the real trigger is/was, so might have been lucky second time around. (If I get to reproduce it, I'll add more information.)
I'll assume that it is http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=81314 in which case the fix will be in >= 2.3.0-6.10 which will be released for F-8 eventually
