Title:
  [Upstream] Draw rotating text 180 degrees with line longer than text
  mis-flips text and rotates it 180 degrees

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

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

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

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

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/641668/+attachment/1600007/+files/line-180
  -with-long-text-bug.odg && lodraw -nologo line-180-with-long-text-
  bug.odg

  click the numbers -> Format -> Position and Size... -> Rotation tab ->
  change Angle combo box to 0.00 -> OK button and the numbers are
  rotated 180 degrees.

  4) What happens instead is the numbers are rotated 180 degrees and
  flipped horizontally. This issue is correlated with the text being
  longer than the line is if one stretches the line past the text the
  text automatically flips horizontally.

  WORKAROUND: Keep the line shorter than the text.

  Original Reporter Comments: This problem seems not to occur for other
  rotations than 180 degrees, neither if the line is longer than the
  text.
