1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer

3) What is expected to happen in Writer is when one clicks Insert ->
Field -> Page Numbers -> double click page number -> change offset from
0 to 6 -> OK button

-OR-

Insert -> Field -> Other -> Page -> Page Numbers -> Offset 6 -> Insert
button

it shows the first Page Number object with 6 inside.

4) What happens instead is it shows a blank object.

WORKAROUND: click Format -> Paragraph -> Text Flow tab -> Insert
checkbox checked -> With Page Style checkbox checked -> Page number
combobox 6 -> OK button

The meaning of the offset is: Do not show the actual page number but show the 
number of the page, that is 6 pages ahead. And if there is no such page, then 
nothing it shown.
The offset does not change the actual page number and was never intended to do 
so.

It seems there are no intuitive way to insert page numbers into text document 
with different starting number :(
LibreOffice developers, please change behavoir of Insert -> Field -> Other -> 
Page -> Page Numbers -> Offset to user-friendly.
