libreoffice not showing all the message texts in menus

Hi,
I use libreoffice Build-ID: 4.2.5.2 Arch Linux build-1 on my laptop and a week ago i noticed that a lot of the text in the menus is not displayed anymore.  Also any mouse over texts are empty.

I tried to install some true type fonts but this did not help.  Then I installed some more localization packages but this did not help either.  What could be the reason for this defect?

Re: libreoffice not showing all the message texts in menus

What version of libreoffice were you using back when the menu text worked? If it's the same version, maybe an Xorg or Cairo update broke it. Accelerated text sometimes has issues and you can test that by putting

Section "Device"
  ...
  Option "ExaNoComposite" "true"
  ...
EndSection

in an xorg.conf.

Great things come in tar.xz packages.
