Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to Oneiric, Libre Office often fails to create an icon
in the Unity launcher. The problem occurs with all Libre Office apps be
it Write, Calc or Draw etc.

I don't have any Libre Office icons pinned to my Unity launcher. When I
start Libre Office (through Unity search or opening a file in Nautilus)
I expect Libre Office icons to appear on the launcher to indicate that
it's running and allow task switching.

The bug  doesn't happen all of the time though; Occasionally I'm favored
enough by the Unity gods that icons appear. I haven't spotted a pattern
that triggers it but I'll post more information here when I find it.

I don't know if this is relevant but I checked the unity>launcher entry  in 
dconf-editor to see if there was anything obviously wrong. 
Here are the entries: 

favorite-migration: 3.2.10
favorites: ['nautilus-home.desktop', 'firefox.desktop', 
'transmission-gtk.desktop', 'banshee.desktop', 'gnome-terminal.desktop', 
'gimp.desktop']
shows-on-edge: checked.

I'm going to try reseting all of these to default values to see if the
problem goes away.
