And here is the problem: what exactly is that "choose a shape and a fill color"? What needs to be clocked/entered/etc? and in which sequence? Steps to reproduce are meant to allow anyone without crystal balls to be able to do the same you do, and see the same you see. If you allow yourself to use cryptic messages omitting the crucial pieces, it only requires a luck for those who reproduce this to find the correct steps.

Open LibreOffice draw.
Draw a rectangle using  the rectangle drawing tool
Choose a fill a color, the color of the shape will change BUT................ try the next step
Draw a rectangle again using the rectangle drawing tool with the same fill color. 
You will notice that the fill color did not change but the fill color changed in the first operation.

I am truly sorry for not providing accurate information, I will not try to repeat it.

It is no bug. If you choose a fill color while an object is selected, this color is only applied to the selected object. If you choose a fill color without a selected object, this color will be used for all new drawn objects.

... and when you select line color while an object is selected, this will only apply to the selected object, too, not to following objects.

Closing NOTABUG. Please reopen if you suppose it's incorrect decision; please describe a reason in that case.
