[Libreoffice] update service

[Arnaud Versini]

Hello,

I've tried this system with some problems :

   - I can't build it, it needs some notable modifications before being
   usable with wxWidgets 2.8.
   - this solution needs wxWidgets, I dont know if it's a problem but LibO
   download size increase with.


Is it the good way?
