[ubuntu-za] Libre Office menus gone

[Neil Manson]

Thanks Hilton. Removing libreoffice-gnome seems to have fixed it for me.

The package description says "This package contains the GIO support and a
GConf backend." GIO is the Gnome library for accessing local and remote
files, and GConf is a method for storing program settings. It would seem
that without this package, LibreOffice would have to make another plan to
store its settings, and access virtual file systems.
