            Bug ID: 125104
           Summary: [Ubuntu, Writer] Chaging page numbering to "1st, 2nd,
                    3rd,..." causes crashes when trying to change Page
                    settings later
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: boksy5 at gmail.com

Description:
My computer: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, 64-bit.
This bug happened when I tried to experiment with the page numbering. I opened
the Format>Page settings, and changed page numbering from "1, 2, 3,..." to
"1st, 2nd, 3rd,...". After changing the page numbering, whenever I would try to
open Format>Page or right click>Page..., LibreOffice would crash. In other
words, the page settings become inaccessible.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Format > Page
2. Set page numbers to "1st, 2nd, 3rd..."
3. Click "OK"
4. From now on, whenever you try to change the Page settings (Format>Page)
LibreOffice crashes

Actual Results:
The software crashes whenever you try to change the Page settings.

Expected Results:
The software should not crash.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Workaround: Rename the document's filename extension from ".odt" to ".zip".
Open "styles.xml" and find an instance of: style:num-format="1st"
Change this to: style:num-format="1"
Update the .zip file with this new change and rename it back to .odt.
It should work without crashing now.
