Dear ILUG colleagues,
The issue that I reported on this list regarding broken Hebrew input using Debian Wheezy LibreOffice with the Hebrew keyboard layout from the Keyboard Layouts plugin is resolved by installing LibreOffice from Wheezy backports as follows:

Add

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main

to /etc/apt/sources.list.

Do

apt-get update
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install libreoffice

Thanks to Lior Kaplan for suggesting this solution.

an update about this issue - I installed the libreoffice packages from 
libreoffice.org and the /opt/libreoffice/... writer can handle Hebrew input 
fine in my Debian VM. Furthermore,
briefly after starting it /usr/bin/libreoffice was able to handle Hebrew 
keyboard input as well, but it permanently reverted to its previous, erroneous, 
behaviour after moving away
~/.config/libreoffice (And the libreoffice under /opt - the one from 
libreoffice.org is still fine).
