Hi,

I just downloaded libreOffice for Linux from the official web site. I
expanded the archives and:
- there is no single easy-to-identify executable or script to install the
software
- there are no installation instructions (there is a readme which even has
an "installation notes" section which says nothing about installation)
- in the download page and in the FAQs there are no installation
instructions either

Ah...no...
I don't think telling a Debian/Ubuntu user to install via RPM is correct.

Please see this page from the mailing list for installing deb packages:

The idea about the need for platform packaging has been discussed to great length here previously.

Bottom line: TMTOWTDI
(There's more than one way to do it)
...but let's go a route that makes sense for the platform involved.
