To clarify:  There are some URE libraries that, while they are not part 
of the stable client interface, are nevertheless used "semi-privately" 
from non-URE parts of LO.  As this fix changes the names of those 
"semi-private" URE libraries

  jvmaccess, jvmfwk, xmlreader

any (Linux) distros that split LO into multiple packages must take care 
that any non-URE LO packages depending on those libraries must require 
matching URE packages, both for packages of LO versions < 4.1.2 and for 
packages of LO versions >= 4.1.2.  (On Fedora, e.g., this is guaranteed 
by always having exact

  Requires: %{name}-ure = %{epoch}:%{version}-%{release}

dependencies of non-URE LO RPMs on the URE RPM.  And note how this 
exact-version requirement is typically already there for dependencies 
among other LO packages.)

If there are any (Linux) distros for which this poses a problem, we 
should revert that part of the fix, changing the names of the jvmaccess, 
jvmfwk, and xmlreader libraries back to their original forms.
