The real issue is a constraint in the GMenuModel and GActionGroup
protocol. Actions should be unique. Problem is that the command attached
to the "Slide Show" menu item is linked in two menu items, but one of
them is a radio button, and the other one is a normal button.

In GMenuModel/GActionGroup protocol, actions define the way menu items
are displayed (as radio buttons, checkmarks...). This means that we have
to create a new action with another name that would be mapped to the
original LO command.

Fixing this issue is not trivial, and, since this appears to be a very
specific case, we can do a hack to let this button work on the final
release while we develop a better solution.

Title:
  Start presentation menu entry disabled

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Starting a presentation from the menu by selecting slideshow,
  slideshow doesn't work. The 'slideshow' menu item is grayed out and
  cannot be selected. To workaround the issue, you can use the toolbar
  button or press the keyboard shortcut F5, both which properly start
  the presentation.
