So, /opt/libreoffice4.2/program/soffice.bin is the TDF build and yeah the
libreoffice-dbg symbols wont work for them. The libreoffice-dbg symbols only
work for the Ubuntu build they are created for (that would be the LibreOffice
at: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin). If you are running Ubuntu 13.10
without any PPA, that is indeed LibreOffice 4.1.3.

You can get a packed LibreOffice 4.2.0 (with a debug package that gives you
symbols) from:

 https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa

There is a nice video explaining how to install that PPA:

That version is then replacing the 4.1.3 version and the libreoffice-dbg
package should work against it.
