True; even Pango is likely to be outdated.

About 8 months back, OO.o on my system would not support OpenType
tables. Ugh. Oh. It did support UTF8.
Anyways, I think your problem is irrelevant for this list. In case you
use Debian, you can sign up on forums.debian.net or mail me off list.
If you use any other distro, You should ask in the relevant mailing
list about upgrading your distro. (upgrading OO.o alone may be a
problem).
