The one that is in Ubuntu is named - 
libreoffice4.0-debian-menus_4.0.0-103_all.deb

This is the menu guide "I think" for Debian desktop-integration.

?package(libreoffice-writer):needs="X11" section="Apps/Editors"\
  title="LibreOffice 4.0 Writer" command="libreoffice4.0 -writer"\
  hints="Word Processors"\
  kderemove="y"\
icon="/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/libreoffice4.0-writer.png"\
icon16x16="/usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/libreoffice4.0-writer.png"


This is for the RPM version you have.  There are 3 different ones in the 
RPM desktop-integration package.

?package(libreoffice4.0-writer): needs=x11 
section="Office/Wordprocessors" icon="libreoffice4.0-writer.png" 
title="LibreOffice 4.0 Writer" longtitle="LibreOffice 4.0 Word 
Processing Component" command="libreoffice4.0 -writer" 
mimetypes="application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text,application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-template,application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-web,application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-master,application/vnd.sun.xml.writer,application/vnd.sun.xml.writer.template,application/vnd.sun.xml.writer.global,application/vnd.stardivision.writer,application/msword,application/vnd.ms-word,application/x-doc,application/rtf" 
kde_opt="InitialPreference=100" startup_notify="true"








The problem is not getting it on my desktop or panel, but to get a 
listing in the Applications menu when the package does not list the 
package in say "Applications/Office" where it should be listed, but 
not.  I know how to make a launcher icon on the desktop for my Canon 
Scanner package, but not how to get it in the /Office menu or the 
/Graphics menu where it should belong.  The Canon scanning system will 
not work with XSane, like my Epson scanner does [since I went to Ubuntu 
12.04/12.10].
