Title:
  Debconf prompt for /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc when upgrading to
  precise

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When upgrading from 11.10 to 12.04 I encountered a debconf prompt for
  /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc. It prompts me to keep the old, customized
  conffile or replace it with the new one. I ahve not modified this
  file, and I believe the debconf prompt should not appear. Instead I
  think we might have some broken conffile handling somewhere in
  libreoffice.

  The sofficerc file has not been touched in quite awhile, and I am fairly certain I have never modified it by hand:
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 152 Aug 24  2010 /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc

  Diff of old to new:

  I checked another system running 11.10, and the values in sofficerc are identical to the original version here, so presumably that system would be affected on upgrade too. Both systems I checked had OO.o installed as part of the original OS load, which was either 8.04 (this system) or10.10 (the other system I checked).

  The md5sum of the original file on both 11.10 systems is:
