It looks like several, if not all, distributions are switching to libreoffice, from openoffice. Unfortunately this means that the search paths are going to be different. The attached commit fixed things for me, but it probably makes sense to change this in a more comprehensive way.

Other than the path unoconv seems to work fine with libreoffice 3.3.1.

I have some changes pending that heavily modifies how unoconv looks for binaries, and an attempt to restart itself using the OpenOffice/LibreOffice supplied python binary. But since I don't trust this implementation yet, it has not been merged. But those changes also implement LibreOffice. I'll pull this for now, but expect a redesign :-)

Yes, a redesign sounds like a good idea, adding more stuff to the list did seem like the wrong approach :-) Good to hear you are working on that.

The new code has been tested (on Linux) and committed in the master branch. Works very well with LibreOffice 3.4.3 ! If you are using unoconv I am interested to hear your feedback.
