And to make it even more clear:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/log/?h=libreoffice-4-0&qt=grep&q=API+CHANGE
(as you see, this *will be* in LO 4.0 beginning of next year already)
What are you doing with stuff using that accessing /usr/bin/soffice
and assuming it's AOO which includes those obsolete API which would
happen if soffice was an alternative? [1]

[1] There shouldn't be much using that (if at all), but it's the theory
which counts..
