Well, you can download it here:

better that me ;-)

Yes, I have. But I am not a programer and I know a little about bashscript.
I have done what I could with my "rustic tools" =D. Call it a "workaround".

Good question. Mandriva is still distributed with OpenOffice 3.2 and so is
Fedora. I use Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.11, and LibreOffice 3.3.2, which aren't in
the Ubuntu's repositories yet. So, I really don't know what those distros
are changing in original packages of LibreOffice.
