.openoffice.org2 should not be created by LO. no?

Probably. But see below.

Here we have a difference 1:3.4.5-5 vs 1:1:3.4.6-2. Minor bugfix-only release.
Shouldn't affect that.

The rest is icons (libreoffice-style-galaxy), SRB libs only used when -report-builder
is used (libreoffice-report-builder-bin) and filters/help. Where I could imagine
some breakage is -emailmerge (but that simply uses python-uno via python) or
libreoffice-java-common (which contains the Java support stuff)
Would you mind - if you can reproduce it - upgrading the ones I mentioned step by ste
until it starts working?
