That has nothing to do with OOo or LibreOffice, it did not work any better with OOo. The root cause is that the bootstrap helper makes quite crazy assumptions about where to find the soffice binary. Debian (and thus Ubuntu) does quite a few changes (for example moving jars around), which the original OOo code does not handle too well. unoinfo.sh has no role in this at all -- it is not even packaged on Ubuntu. > Instead one needs to deinstall LO, remove "~/.libreoffice" in home, > get the official LO distribution and install it, then things start to > work as was the case in the past with OOo. No, you would need to bootstrap with a ClassLoader having a correct resource path. Never having seen this being reported against LibreOffice on launchpad, it was assumed as not a serious issue. Whining about it on the mailing list of a different project instead of filing a bug is kind of ridiculous still, isnt it?
