Leandro, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to
make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and
it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the
developers of the software by following the instructions at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport . If you have done so,
please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can
add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

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

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
  libreoffice-writer:
    Installed: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2
    Candidate: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0

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

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/462564/+attachment/894856/+files/test.odt
  && lowriter -nologo test.odt

  is when one highlights the second column of the table -> secondary
  clicks -> Column -> Delete is only that column is deleted. Please see
  movie for more details:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/462564/+attachment/894864/+files/out.ogv

  4) What happens instead is the whole table is deleted.

  WORKAROUND: Split the table then delete the column.
