Description of problem: OpenLP (packaged in fedora) tries to start Impress using the sockets interface. This has worked fine for the last few Fedora releases. Having just upgraded to Fedora16 OpenLP now crashes if it is asked to use Impress. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): OpenLP 1.9.8 (or any version) Impress - Current Fedora release version (Updates) How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install OpenLP from Fedora repository and start it. 2. When the first time wizard runs make sure "Presentations" is selected. 3. Wait for the "bang" Actual results: OpenLP fails to start and gives you a stack trace. Expected results: OpenLP starts and give you a display to use Additional info: Attached file is a stack trace
Following testing on other platforms by the rest of the team it seems like it only happens on Fedora 16 when it tries to access LibreOffice.
It crashes here during start with *** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/bin/python terminated ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x30c9d06977] /lib64/libc.so.6[0x30c9d048f0] /lib64/libc.so.6[0x30c9d0692e] /usr/lib64/libQtCore.so.4[0x30d55525d4] /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/PyQt4/QtCore.so(+0x101a63)[0x7f7f322b0a63] /usr/lib64/libpython2.7.so.1.0(PyEval_EvalFrameEx+0x557b)[0x30cd0dffbb] , so I do not even get as far as the first time wizard ;) If you have stack trace, please attach it here.

Yeah, just what I thought: this is the same trace I have got. And it has nothing to do with libreoffice.
