1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc

3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/38211/+attachment/2142831/+files/example.odt && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f txt example.odt && lowriter -nologo example.txt example.odt

the bullets in example.odt are converted to asterisks in the example.txt file, as Word does it if converted from .doc to .txt.

4) What happens instead is the bullets are removed but not replaced with asterisks. The file was created opening a blank document then entering the following 3 lines:
list item one
list item two
list item three

Highlight the three lines and click the "Bullets" button on the toolbar to make the list bulleted. Save as .odt file.
