There are no new official OpenOffice.org releases in Ubuntu packaging anymore => Won't Fix  

If the problem persists, please mark this bug as "also affects project
Libreoffice" or "also affects distribution Libreoffice (Ubuntu)" if that
has not happened already.

Please leave references to upstream OpenOffice.org bugs in place to

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

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/211345/+attachment/253514/+files/Vorlage%20Brief.ott
  && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott && lowriter
  -nologo Vorlage\ Brief.ott Vorlage\ Brief.rtf

  the text fields remain.
   
  4) What happens instead is they disappear.

  PARTIAL WORKAROUND: Convert to .rtf via AbiWord. This will not
  preserve the text field function but will preserve the words.

  abiword --to=rtf --to-name=Vorlage\ Brief.rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott &&
  abiword Vorlage\ Brief.rtf
