Accidentally pasted text intended for a note into a cell 2. Added a note (different cell) 3. Pasted text into the note 4. Moved and resized the note 5. On closing the note, realized that the text pasted into a cell may have overwritten its previous contents 6. Undid all previous steps until the cell's former contents were restored 7. Noticed that the cell on which I had attached the note still had a note indicator 8. Right-clicked on the cell and attempted "Show Note" 9. Crash

After recovering from the crash and repeating my edits, I discovered that I had not actually done step 1. When I pasted my clipboard text into the note (using the middle button on the mouse,) it simultaneously got pasted into the cell behind the note. An immediate Undo removed the pasted text from the note, but not from the cell in which the text was duplicated. I had to Undo a few more times to actually restore the cell's former text, but at that point the stability of OOoCalc was already suspect. I undid my changes as far back as possible, but the cell on which I tried to attach the note still indicated a note attached. Sure enough, attempting to show the note caused another crash.

F-12 isn't supported anymore, its not possible to submit updated packages for it anymore, so can't be fixed there anyway. F-14 has OpenOffice.org 3.3. Hopefully its fixed in the supported versions, which isn't guaranteed of course, but I hope so :-)
Easily reproducible on openoffice.org-calc-3.3.0-17.2.fc14.i686. I'll attach a document you can play with and another crash dump.
Created attachment 469445 [details] Microsoft Office Excel-formatted spreadsheet This is the document I used to reproduce the pasting & undo bugs followed by the "show note" crash.
*** Bug 664069 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Well firstly if this .xls is opened in an older version is suffers from bug 636521 where immediately after opening there is the possibility to do an "undo" which crashes calc. That's fixed in 3.3.0-17.2.fc14. So how exactly do you get this one to crash in 3.3.0-17.2.fc14 ? I opened the doc, confirmed that "undo" is unavailable as it should be. Went to a cell, insert note, pasted some text into the note. Dragged it about a bit, undoed all the way. For me the note indicator disappeared as expected.
1. Start OOo Calc 2. Open the .xls spreadsheet 3. Start the gedit text editor 4. In gedit, enter "This is a test note." 5. In scalc, right-click on cell K19 (as an example) 6. Choose "Insert Comment" 7. Go back to gedit and drag the mouse over the text to highlight it 8. Click the middle mouse button on the comment box in scalc, where it overlaps cell M17, to paste the selected text At this point you should see "This is a test note" in the comment box, and the word "This" in white just to the left of the comment box. 9. Click on cell K19 This automatically hides the comment, exposing the rest of the text "This is a test note" in cell M17 (spanning from the end of K17 to the start of O17.) 10. Click on the Edit menu The first entry reads: "Undo: Edit Comment" 11. Click on Undo 12. Click on the Edit menu The first entry reads: "Undo: Insert" 13. Click on Undo The text in cell M17 disappears. The comment indicator in cell K19 is still present. 14. Click on the Edit menu The first entry "Undo: Insert" is grayed out; no further undo is possible. 15. Close the Edit menu 16. Right-click on cell K19 The fourth section of the pop-up menu shows "Insert Comment", "Delete Comment", and "Show Comment". 17. Click on Show Comment 18. Wait for it ... 15-20 second later, scalc disappears and abrt reports a crash.

Excellent, reproducible, thanks for this :-) It matters greatly the exact type of paste.
Fix checked in, will be ok (I hope) in >= 3.3.0-18.3
