It will appear in Synaptic if you installed using the dpkg.

What do you show for:

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep libreoffice

Can you also show the output of:

$ apt-cache policy libreoffice
and
$ apt-cache policy libreoffice3

If on that last you get:

$ apt-cache policy libreoffice3
libreoffice3:
  Installed: 3.3.1-19
  Candidate: 3.3.1-19
  Version table:
 *** 3.3.1-19 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

and nothing on the previous, then you have the dpkg version installed.

dpkg installs will show in Synaptic. However when you view, notice that
the 'Download' column will show '0 B'.
