The duplicate bug report was found to be about libreoffice-voikko. In this report, I don't see immediate signs that libreoffice-voikko was in use, so separating this one instead.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

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

[Timo Jyrinki (timo-jyrinki)]

Added the possible duplicates as duplicate of this bug. If you receive this e-mail and you _do have_ libreoffice-voikko installed, change your own bug report to be again duplicate of bug #761823 instead.

Sorry Christopher but I am not able to reproduce the bug.
I now have Precise Pangolin installed and LibreOffice 3.5.2.2 - Build ID: 350m1(Build:202).
I've used Libre office writer but the bug has no longer occured.
