Bug Description

I'm trying to run Libreoffice in a Vivid + overlay PPA Unity 8 desktop session using Xmir from the overlay PPA using the '-rootless -flatten' Xmir options. Libreoffice fails to start in this situation.

I've attached the application and unity8 log files.

This failure is quite different than the gedit/xchat issue in bug #1501333, so I'm not marking it as affecting unity8...yet.
