Title:
  LibreOffice Missing Files For JavaScript Macros to work in 11.10

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Running LibreOffice on 11.10. Tools/macros/Organize Macros -
  Javascript option is missing.

  I installed 'rhino', with no effect.

  For javascript to work in LibreOffice it appears I need the file
  ScriptProviderForJavaScript.jar

  Maverick had this file:

  /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.2/program/classes/ScriptProviderForJavaScript.jar

  in openoffice.org-java-common
  (http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/all/openoffice.org-java-
  common/filelist)

  But the file is missing from 11.10:
  http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/all/libreoffice-java-
  common/filelist

  By taking the files found in Arch Linux:

  http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libreoffice-extension-
  scripting-javascript/

  and putting them under /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/script-
  provider-for-javascript on 11.10, I can solve the problem.

  But clearly this should not be necessary.

  The files should be (but do not appear to be) provided by some package
  in 11.10.
