           Summary: Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2003 in WINE crashes
                    downloading compatibility pack
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.10
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Downstream bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.2/+bug/696531

Binary package hint: wine1.2

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.10
Release: 10.10

2) apt-cache policy wine1.3
wine1.3:
  Installed: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1
  Candidate: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1
  Version table:
 *** 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What is expected to happen is when one downloads Microsoft Office Word
Viewer 2003 from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=3657ce88-7cfa-457a-9aec-f4f827f20cac&displaylang=en

installs it in WINE, then opens MS .docx file downloaded from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a471da91-dcbb-4e9a-8b6c-778a79038758&displaylang=en

it opens.

4) What happens instead is when one tries to open the file, MSOWV notes "This
file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Word. Do you want to download
a compatibility pack so that you can work with this file?" clicked Ok, then
window pops up "Program Error The program WORDVIEW.EXE has encountered a
serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
clicked ok, got log file (please see attached wine1.3.10: wine
wordview.exe.txt).
