Package: kword
Version: KDE 2.1.1 
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    Debian Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Currently KWord crashes when opening an invalid .kwd file.  It would be nice if KWord \
would respond nicely (eg: "File is corrupt or not a Kword file - can't open") rather \
than crash.

An example can be found at http://bugs.debian.org/95931 (which was the Debian bug \
report that prompted this KWord bug report).  When loading this particular file KWord \
crashes with a SIGSEGV.  It consists of a corrupted XML file (cropped abruptly at \
both beginning and end); KWord crashes when loading it.  The corrupted XML file can \
be found at:

http://www.coker.com.au/teeth.kwd

The KWord output leading up to the crash is reproduced below.  If you want a copy of \
the corrupted XML file, please mail me at benb@acm.org.
