            Bug ID: 112506
           Summary: font change leads to bad allocation
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.6.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dave at helperdave.ch

Description:
In Writer 5.3.6 and 5.4.1 trying to change the font leads to a "bad allocation"
message and the program shuts down.
This happened quite a long time ago too, so I think one of the code
contributors is using a bad sequence copied from earlier code. Maybe on
purpose?
How about checking the latest installation files before putting them on the
web...

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open new writer document
2. in the menu bar choose different font than the default
3. watch the program produce the message and then shut down

Actual Results:  
same as steps to reproduce; uninstalling using Programs and Features in the
control panel and reinstalling version 5.2.6.2 gets things back to normal

Expected Results:
after reinstallation of the previous version the problem was solved.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
If 5.2.6.2 works okay after uninstalling the updates I think the profile must
be alright.
