[MIR] LibreOffice dependencies in universe

[Björn Michaelsen]

[Availability]
All packages are in universe and build from main.

[Rationale]
All packages are hard dependencies of LibreOffice and have been in shipped as an internal copy of LibreOffice in main at least since Ubuntu vivid.

[Security]
Shipping these packages as external package allows e.g. easier security updates vs. shipping them internally with LibreOffice.

No executables, only libs. No services, no networking.

[Quality assurance]
The packages will be used from LibreOffice and are already shipped as an internal copy in previous uploads.

[UI standards]
Doesnt apply -- these libs have no UI on their own.

[Dependencies]
All build dependencies are satisfyable in main.

[Standards compliance]
Packaging is reasonably trivial.

[Maintenance]
Actively maintained at Debian.

Background information:
All packages are in wily/universe, need MIR, were shipped with LibreOffice in wily/main.

I looked at the package, and made some changes, bringing it to current standards. It looks fine except for the disabled testsuite. I enabled it now, ignoring the results. Please could either you or Timo look at the tests and see if this is an issue with the test environment or the test itself? Test log is included in the build log.

There are some issues:

 - OpenDriver tries first /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so, which
   doesn't exist. Why?
 - It then fails later with error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found. Why?
 - Also the test itself tries to open a data file, and fails. Why?

Please could you also subscribe the desktop team to bug reports? The LibreOffice Team is not monitored afaik.
