[libreoffice-users] Python uno: missing attributes

I installed the DEB packages for ubuntu from
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/3.3.2/deb/x86/LibO_3.3.2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz
And now my python scripts that earlier connected to soffice headless to
interact with spreadsheets are broken:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: loadComponentFromURL
Error in sys.excepthook:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apport_python_hook.py", line 57, in
apport_excepthook
    from apport.fileutils import likely_packaged
  File "/opt/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/uno.py", line 291, in _uno_import
    raise ImportError( "type "+ name + "." +x + " is unknown" )
ImportError: type apport.fileutils.likely_packaged is unknown

Original exception was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: loadComponentFromURL
====================

So I opened up python console and tried to inspect a call to uno:
=====================
Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Mar 24 2011, 00:39:14)
[GCC 4.5.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

['ActiveFrame', 'DispatchRecorderSupplier', 'ImplementationId',
'ImplementationName', 'IsPlugged', 'PropertySetInfo',
'SupportedServiceNames', 'SuspendQuickstartVeto', 'Title', 'Types',
'addEventListener', 'addPropertyChangeListener',
'addVetoableChangeListener', 'dispose', 'disposing', 'getImplementationId',
'getImplementationName', 'getPropertySetInfo', 'getPropertyValue',
'getSupportedServiceNames', 'getTypes', 'handle', 'queryInterface',
'removeEventListener', 'removePropertyChangeListener',
'removeVetoableChangeListener', 'setPropertyValue', 'supportsService']

=====================

I compare it with another setup to see several attributes are missing from
StarDesktop, the main one - *loadComponentFromURL*

Anyone faced similar problems?

Thanks in advance,
Kishan
