I see your package is in good shape. It's nearly ready for upload.

I wonder what's the impact of disabling libgoffice? If it's not too
visible to user, I'm okay.

Apparently... git.debian.org has been down today... And I suggest to
move the repository to collab-maint, so other one can help easily when
you ask them.

Apart from packaging stuff, I'd like to ask you spend some effort on
triaging bugs on BTS. I believe many of them has been fixed (maybe
already long time before). Once the package get uploaded, please act
if you see appropriate as you've becoming the new maintainer in
Debian.
