libreoffice globalmenu is not working

[Sven Romeike]

my system has the most recent updates and lo-menubar installed. lo-menubar does not work anymore. when i start libreoffice writer the globalmenu does not show up.

1. install ubuntu 12.04 LTS
2. install lo-menubar
3. update your system to the most recent updates (proposed included)
4. start libreoffice writer

expected result:
the menubar should appear on the top of the screen and should not show up on the programm window

actual result:
the globalmenu shows no menubar and the menubar stays attached to the window.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

My temporary solution:
1) Downgraded to previous version, i.e. lo-menubar 0.1.0-0ubuntu4, and
2) Locked version -- using Synaptic Package Manager

My solution was: do a complete remove of package lo-menubar via Synaptic, start Writer (so LO recognized this LO-extension isn't available anymore), quit writer, install package lo-menubar via synaptic again - voila you got back your global menu.

That also did the trick for me - thanks for the hint.
