Re: Re: [libreoffice-users] installation problem LO4.4 - linux mint

2015-02-15 Thread sqroot
thank you. i returned to the default LO-version for linux mint, because even 
from terminal i couldnĀ“ t launch LO4.4 anymore. it would be interesting to 
analyze the situation and fix it but i donĀ“t have the time for that. :/

cheers, markus

I am running Linux Mint 16, due some printer dependency issues [missing 
dependencies that will not install properly] with the later version[s] 
fo Ubuntu based OSs. I also run Ubuntu 14.xx with MATE desktop environment.

SO, I have seen this issue before.

If you can go into the DEB folder and rerun the Applications Menu setup 
file, then it should fix the issues with the icons. To me it appears 
that the menu icons are pointing to the old version.

I tend to delete the desktop icons for LO and replace then with the ones 
in the Applications/Office menu. I do this with every upgrade from say 
4.3.x to 4.4.x [like 4.2.x to 4.3.x].

thanks mike! adding the ppa means, you did not remove the old LO-version in the 
first place?
