  [SRU] LibreOffice 4.2.5 for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise)

Bug description:
  LibreOffice on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise) is very buggy comparing to current 
(4.1.3) release from Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy).
  LibreOffice packages on Ubuntu 12.04 urgently  needs an update to latest 
supported release 4.1.3 (or newer) for quite a set of critical fixes.

  [IMPACT]
   3.5.7 is End of Life since November, 2012!
   Look at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan#End_of_Life_Releases 
   * https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/3.6
   * https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.0
   * https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.1

  A very large number of bugs have been fixed since 3.5.7, far too many to 
attempt an accurate listing; even counting them accurately is difficult.
  However a reasonable estimate is around three thousand bugs just in 4.1 
release!

  Lots of people still uses Ubuntu LTS release and since end of 2012 they are 
forced to search correctly working LibreOffice packages.
  Some of them installs LibreOffice from upstream deb files - this way is very 
hard for majority users :(
  Other users finds https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/libreoffice-4-1 
and updates LibreOffice from ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-4-1 repo, but this is 
also not easy way - why LTS users can install supported and up to date Firefox 
and Chromium like usual updates, but can't install supported and up to date 
LibreOffice software?
