LibreOffice includes the patchset that was GO-OO that neither Sun or
Oracle would comit to the repo, so it was maintained as a separate

Pure Conjecture, Debian by shipping LibreOffice is shipping pretty
much the exact same software that it used to ship as OO.o (GO-OO) so
the stability/maturity should not have apreciably changed?
