--- Comment #2 from [email protected] ---
Julien, thanks for the response. I looked at the Linux x86-64 download and it
looks like a Redhat rpm distro. I read about a DEBS directory in file
'readmes/README_en-US', but there was not DEBS directory for Debian Linux. That
is just as well. I added bookworm-backports archive to my system in file
'/etc/apt/sources.list' and was able to try to get package 4:24.2.5-1~bpo12+1 .
I tried to install metapackage libreoffice from bookworm-backports, but it
complained about dependencies. Listed by apt show was the dependency on
bookworm-backports package libreoffice-core. It did not work.

Here is the dependency issues according to 'apt'.

The dependency differences appear too great for my skill level at least. I do
not welcome this system administration challenge. I use Debian Stable for a
reason. I have had this installation of Debian 12.6 for barely a month
(reinstall to correct no kernel updates after NVIDIA driver issue) and I think
I will just accept LibreOffice package 4:7.4.7-1+deb12u4 as is. Maybe with
Debian 13, trixie this will be fixed for me.

Sorry I cannot be of more help. If your latest version of LibreOffice does not
have the issue with the text cursor, that's great.
