We badly need to try and get this fixed before 12.04.1 releases. I found two other bugs both marked invalid; bug 960089, and bug 991399. Since Lubuntu ships with Abiword as it's default word processor I subscribed Julien Lavergne in hopes he'll be able to advise.

While Lubuntu won't build a 12.04.1 release I'd think we could get the reversion to abiword-2.8.6 into proposed updates after which I'd be willing to perform SRU testing on the same so we could then move it to recommended updates.

OTOH I see someone appears to be trying to build a PPA:

No packages yet but maybe someone could collaborate with Eliah Kagan to get a fix figured out for this.
