[Marcel Stimberg <792942@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bryce, these Launchpad bug messages are a bit misleading at times. The upstream bug in the freedesktop bugtracker has been marked as "invalid" because in launchpad no better translation of the status "WORKSFORME" exists (please don't change the upstream status, it will be reset automatically after a while). The Ubuntu bug status is still unchanged. What is missing in this bug report is:
1. A change in the bug description so it matches the SRU guidelines (you can change the bug description by clicking the yellow icon at the top right of the description) -- in particular, state that it affects the newest version (that was misleading for me, before) and use the "TEST CASE: " format
2. (very important) the bug needs a "nominate for series" for Natty, i.e. a specific bug status only for Natty. Unfortunately, neither you or I  have the rights to do that (you have to be member of bug control). Perhaps you could ping someone at the #ubuntu-bugs IRC channel on irc.freenode.net to do it for you?
3. Someone has to identify a patch fixing the issue. I had a quick look upstream and it seems the RTF export has been basically rewritten for 3.4 -- maybe it is not possible to identify a single patch and a backport instead of an SRU would be more appropriate.

Unfortunately I do not have the time to delve into this problem much
deeper -- I can imagine that the way this bug is handled is frustrating,
fixing bugs in stable releases is always a somewhat tedious process, in
particular for huge packages like libreoffice...

Title:
  [Upstream] Writer saving .odt to .rtf duplicates hyperlink

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Invalid
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libreoffice
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
  libreoffice-writer:
    Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages

  apt-cache policy unoconv
  unoconv:

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

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/792942/+attachment/2156505/+files/LO_Hyperlink_Test.odt
  && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f rtf LO_Hyperlink_Test.odt &&
  lowriter -nologo LO_Hyperlink_Test.odt LO_Hyperlink_Test.rtf

  the hyperlink looks the same in both files.

  4) What happens instead is the hyperlink in the rtf is duplicated and
  appears next to the original hyperlink.
