Public bug reported: Searching for Libreoffice in a software centre which uses Appstream data (most of them) brings up Libreoffice but install libreoffice-common. This is because it contains libreoffice-startcenter.desktop which gets extracted into the DEP-11 data. libreoffice-common doesn't depend on anything useful so the user does not end up with a useful libreoffice install. It would be better to move this libreoffice- startcenter.desktop file into the libreoffice meta package.
