Bug#954323: libreoffice-common: Update to 1:6.4.2-1 renders libreoffice-writer unusable

[Ara Keary <ara.keary@gmail.com>]

Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 1:6.4.2-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear maintainers,

updating libreoffice-common to 1:6.4.2-1 renders libreoffice-writer unusable:
when opening an existing file
. either the document is declared as to be restored, but restoration fails,
. or the document opens, but no menu is available, icons are scattered.

In either case, it is impossible to edit the file in proper conditions.

Downgrading libreoffice-common to 1:6.4.1-1 solves the problem.

Note that in the last debian update, many other packages were upgraded to
1:6.4.2-1 .
Keeping these packages in version 1:6.4.2-1 while downgrading the only package
"libreoffice-common" to 1:6.4.1-1 solves the problem.

Cheers,

Ara
