With following process to post-process the crappy 1-pixel stuff
generated by LO, I was able to get a relatively clean PDF (Fonts are not
exported as fonts, but that is another topic):
Save the file/export to EPS format.
The EPS is pretty readable, so I remove the lines with the dots with the
following awk script:
---8<---fixodg2pdf.awk--------
#!/usr/bin/awk -f
# points (pc?) with the lr/ul corner being teh same
{if (($1==$4) && ($2==$5))
{next;}
}
{print}
---8<-------------------------
(save and chmod a+x fixodg2pdf)
use it like
./fixodg2pdf.awk exported.eps > fixed.eps
Then use gv to open it and save as PDF.
There were issues with the bounding box for me with other tools, so the last
step may be up to your preferred tool.
Please, can somebody fix the exports of LO? This makes the whole drawing
part of LO pretty unusable.

3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/689349/+attachment/1763870/+files/classnetwork.odg
&& unoconv --listener && unoconv -f pdf classnetwork.odg && acroread
classnetwork.pdf
is it looks as it does in Evince.
4) What happens instead is acroread displays erroneous pixel-sized
dots as per screenshot
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/689349/+attachment/1763844/+files/garbagescreenshot.png
, while evince does not.
First reproduced in Maverick 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu3~maverick1, and
reproduced in Natty, and Precise.
Unconfirmed OOo WORKAROUND: The upstream version does _not_ produce
these effects and is fine.
