We can revisit things when application installation works better. So, take this as my +1 for including libreoffice in the f18 desktop live image. It may be a little late now, but maybe we can still squeeze this change in.

OK, I'll make that change and close out the bug.

Of course, that likely means
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=880653 might pop up again as
being more important, but... meh.
