Bug Description
After making a new installation of Linux Mint 18 Sarah with Cinnamon desktop and locale en_GB.UTF8, wanting the latest Libre Office Fresh, I added the LibreOffice (Fresh) ppa to Software Sources, and went to Update Manager: after refresh (as expected) it offered the package Libre Office 5.2.0.4 (with ~-l10n package), install of this went ok except that on checking Tools > Options > Language, UI language was English (USA) only (no alternative), not English (UK) that I expected (other language options were ok).
Note: no option to specify language/locale during installation of LO, I expected it to just pick up the language automatically from system locale
I had not used or tweaked LibreOffice in any way prior to adding the ppa, and installing LO Fresh on this system.
Subsequently uninstalled LO Fresh and PPA, installed 'standard' (for LM 18) LO 5.1 (including ~l10n-en-gb), then added ppa and reinstalled LO Fresh (5.2) - this did correctly set UI language to English(UK)
