Comment #32 dated 2013-04-05: "This bug was fixed in the package pycurl
- 7.19.0-5ubuntu7"
The fix has not yet got back to (X)ubuntu 12.04(.2) LTS - considering it
is a security-related isssue (securely identifying repositories in add-
apt-repository), its backporting should surely be given some urgency -
please!

You are about to add the following PPA to your system:
LibreOffice 4.0.x series stable backports ppa (and SRU-testing for raring)
http://sweetshark.livejournal.com/10977.html
This ppa will:
- not contain alpha and beta releases like 4.0.0~beta2
- not contain updates to the next major (4.1.x)
- contain minor release updates and their release candidates -- these can be
considered stable
Note that for minor release updates (4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.3 ...) an rc2 is
almost always exactly the same as the final version.

I have tried a purge and install but it doesn't fix this.
No idea how to work around this.
