Do you have anu version of libreoffice already installed?


Hi Fred
I'm running SL6 and SL7 and I have just installed LibreOffice 6.3.0.4 OK 
in both. It should be just the same in CentOS.
It's best to do yum remove libreoffice* first to get rid of any earlier 
version, then go to the folder where you have all the new rpms and do 
yum install *.rpm

CentOS 7 comes with Libreoffice 5.3.6.1.  There is no support for 
installing newer versions from other sources.



unpack all the rpm files,


RPM files from where?  We don't supply Libreoffice RPMs for any version 
other than what is stated above.

[CentOS] failing to install LibreOffice 6.3.0.4

2019-08-10 Thread Fred Smith
As in subject, am attempting to install latest LibreOffice on C7.

unpack all the rpm files, type "yum install *.rpm", or "yum localinstall *.rpm"
and yum spews the list of filenames (with the word "examining" in front
of each file) then says "nothing to do".


what the hey?

I tried "yum clean all" but it didn't help.

I also verified the sha256sum of the download.

Anyone got any good advice?

thanks in advance!

Fred
