Title:
Selected Hebrew font does not persist as I start typing
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
The symptoms are:
* Before I start typing in Hebrew, I can normally select a desired font from
the Font Name box. For example, I select the David CLM font, which is Hebrew
specific, as far as I understand. But as soon as I start typing in Hebrew, the
font gets switched to another one - Lohit Hindi for no obvious reason.
* If I want to have the font setting persist, I need to first type something
with this wrong font, and then change the font to the desired one. After doing
it this way, the selected font will persist and I can continue to type with the
right one.
* However, if some time later I decide to change the font again (say, to the
Aharoni CLM), I cannot do it in the beginning of a paragraph, otherwise it will
switch back again - to the David CLM font.
* When I'm typing in Hewbrew, the language indicator on the status row (to
the left of the INSRT indicator) shows Hindi.
* Every time I start a new paragraph, I can see the language switch to
English (USA). As soon as I start typing, it switches back to Hindi.
* The problem appears only when trying to type in Hebrew, it's totally fine
in Russian and in English.
I did configure the system to support Hebrew and RTL input, by going
to System Settings -> Language Support and installing Hebrew. Also
there was some option to specifically install RTL support, which I
enabled, too. I updated the system after that. And also restarted it
multiple times. There are some specific Hebrew fonts which were
automatically installed during the installation process in the
Language Support.
A friend of mine who is still using OpenOffice on a previous version
of Ubuntu, doesn't have this bug.
I couldn't find any similar reports from other users, however I found this
post on the developers mailing list which seems to be connected to this issue,
though I did not manage to figure how:

P.s. my current system: Ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit on VirtualBox host. The
rest of the essential info should be delivered through Apport.
