Yes, this is the same issue as far as Impress Master Pages is concerned on OO 
Linux DEB 64

There is the other issue in my posting that OO Linux 64 DEB 4.2.0 does not 
apply page backgrounds (and the minor issue of whether that tab should be 
called Page or Area across all operating systems)

I should stress that currently, for me doing my current work, these are not 
critical problems, but it would be good to have them sorted in the long run
