I assume that this is the patch from Novell that contains a very hacky
filter. The quality of this patch/filter was so low that we didn't want
to integrate it, it failed to import even just the text from very simple
lwp documents (don't ask for attributes!).

Ubuntu unfortunately takes some from the ooo-build patches that for very
good reasons are not integrated into the main code line.
