Track Changes: XML broken: The end tag w:ins does not match with the start tag w:rPr

[Commifreak]

Describe the bug Sometimes, if track changes is enabled, collabora breaks the xml block for a change, resulting in xml error and broken document. One can fix it to remove the not starting w:ins tag and repait the document but it happens again after a few edits

To Reproduce No valid steps known :(

Expected behavior No XML corruption

Actual behavior This is one w:pRr block:

            <w:pPr>
                <w:pStyle w:val="Normal"/>
                <w:bidi w:val="0"/>
                <w:spacing w:lineRule="auto" w:line="252"/>
                <w:ind w:left="0" w:right="0" w:hanging="0"/>
                <w:jc w:val="both"/>
                <w:rPr>
                    <w:del w:id="392" w:author="Username" w:date="2022-12-14T09:27:26Z"/>
                </w:ins>
            </w:rPr>
        </w:pPr>

You see, the </w:ins> has no starting tag which breaks the document. The document is then not editable anymore.

Please try to find an exact reproducer, we can't do anything about the problem until there is one.

Probably the same issue as this: tdf#147892

[Commifreak]

Indeed. Seem to be it

Let's assume it is. The fix is now ported to co-22.05 as the following commit, and will be part of the next CODE release. https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/commit/f91e083e2565f07a6ebd2f2c0aa69bbacb4cfd19
