Funnily enough "infidelity" is exactly what I've experienced with OpenOffice over the last 12 years or so. I've only updated OO through distribution upgrades, every year or so, but every year, when giving my lecture, presentation layout would be broken because OOo had decided that it wanted to wrap some lines at a different place than the year before.
The first few years I was annoyed, but I got over it and now I'm just taking it as a given that I need to fix my presentation every year.
The problem might be due to the fonts and text rendering infrastructure in Linux being in flux.
Preemptive argument: I've yet to find out how I can do unnumbered list entries in Presentation that correctly indent all but the first line in a "paragraph" without defining my own formats.
