icon, but this will install the non-portable version

Description:
Portable Apps provides its own message when a new *portable apps* version is
ready. If I succumb to the LO 'update available' icon it will install the
non-portable version.
Suggested amendment: Please recognise when LO is running as a Portable version
and make sure the 'update available' icon (a tiny globe) is not visible in the
top right hand corner (same row as the File, Tools, Help menu choices).
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run Portable LO after a new version of the non-portable version has been
announced, but it is not installed yet
2.Notice the 'update available' icon at the top right
3.Succumb to your instincts and click on this. You WILL NOT update your
portable version of LO.
4. Note that your
Actual Results:
I have not succumbed to this icon for several years, but my memory os that it
installed the whle of the new version of LO on my PC
Expected Results:
Innocent users will hope to update the Portable version of LO.
The icon should recognise that this is a portable version and hide itself.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
If you want me to "...copy the information from menu Help - About Libreoffice"
as suggested below this text box, the message ought to allow a user to
highlight parts of it and copy them. Another way is to have a command button
labelled "Copy this info."
