I have everything working normally now with one exception, which is when I
download any Libre Office type of document from GMail or by any other means
through Firefox. When I do this, LO opens with the menus, but the menus do
not do anything, click any menu, nothing happens. To resolve, simply click
Firefox (or any other window you have open) then go back to LO and the
menus work perfectly.

The developers were probably very concerned that no menus were appearing
when clicking an LO document in Nautilus (which is now resolved) that the
Firefox issue got overlooked.

  pre-SRU description details:

  1) Have no instance of LibreOffice running
  2) open a document by double-clicking it in nautilus
  3) new window has no menu
  4) unfocusing/refocusing (e.g. by pressing F7 to bring up the spelling 
dialog) makes the menu appear

  WORKAROUND: minimize and restore the LibreOffice window
  (more permanent workaround, disable the global menu by removing the package 
"libreoffice-gtk").
