Comment #79 doesn't work for me. But it guided me to my (working) solution!
First of all I didn't found any .deb package at www.libreoffice.org. Just .rpm was avaliable. So I found old (and magically also most new) versions at: http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ I downloaded and installed libreoffice 4.2.0.1 with #80 's instructions and alt + <hotkey> worked!!
