Binary package hint: ubiquity

Ubiquity 2.5.11 (running from today's daily Natty Desktop i386 Install
CD, which has md5sum e8106eddd8f76212ea6861511d1e4586) advertises
Ubuntu's ability to create and edit office (for example, word
processing) documents with OpenOffice.org. The attached screenshot shows
this. However, starting in Natty, Ubuntu provides LibreOffice instead of
OpenOffice.org, rendering this obsolete and also confusing to users who
will expect OpenOffice.org to be included in their system after being
shown it by the installer.

In Natty, Ubiquity should advertise Ubuntu's office document creation
and editing abilities as being due to LibreOffice, instead of
OpenOffice.org.

In previous releases, many if not most users installing Ubuntu were
already familiar with OpenOffice.org. But it seems quite likely that
many users will be unfamiliar with LibreOffice when they install Natty,
which means that is especially important (or at least would be
especially useful) for Ubiquity to show it.
