--- Comment #8 from Luke Kendall <l...@zeta.org.au> ---
I had trouble removing it.
I uninstalled the older LO via Synaptic, no problem. That left me with 4.4.,
which I'd installed from the LO site. It of course didn't show up in Synaptic.
I tried this as root, which failed:
# dpkg -P libreoffice4.4

Then I tried this, which also failed:

dpkg: error processing package libreoffice4.4 (--purge):
dependency problems - not removing
Errors were encountered while processing:
libreoffice4.4
But eventually, after dpkg reported other LO packages, this sequence seemed to
succeed:
# dpkg -P libreoffice4.4 libreoffice4.4-dict-es libreoffice4.4-math
libreoffice4.4-base libreoffice4.4-en-us
# dpkg -P libreoffice4.4
# dpkg -P libreoffice4.4-dict-en libreoffice4.4-writer libreoffice4.4-calc
libreoffice4.4-impress libreoffice4.4
# dpkg -r libreoffice4.4
# dpkg -P libreoffice4.4-dict-fr libreoffice4.4-draw libreoffice4.4
Then after installing the new 4.4.4 (.3?) .debs, I remembered I hadn't removed
my config files. So then I tried to remove the just-installed 4.4.4 packages,
and that was even more difficult: everything I tried said there were
dependencies preventing the removal. Like this:

I eventually found that I could remove some packages, and I could try to purge
some, and it would admit that there were other dependencies, and I could either
remove those, or instead it would reveal that there were yet other hidden
dependencies, but eventually I found a <sarcasm>simple and obvious
chain</sarcasm> that seemed to get everything:

My god, dpkg is an abomination as far as usability is concerned!
The good thing is, that after that, instead of reporting that it was installing
over the top of 4.4.2.2 things, everything was like this:
Selecting previously unselected package libreoffice4.4-writer.
Preparing to unpack libreoffice4.4-writer_4.4.4.3-3_i386.deb ...
Unpacking libreoffice4.4-writer (4.4.4.3-3) ...
Selecting previously unselected package libreoffice4.4.
Preparing to unpack libreoffice4.4_4.4.4.3-3_i386.deb ...
Unpacking libreoffice4.4 (4.4.4.3-3) ...
Setting up libreoffice4.4-debian-menus (4.4.4-3) ...
Unfortunately, LO no longer appears in the gnome menu.
When I try to run it by hand I get:
/opt/libreoffice4.4/program/soffice
javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Warning: failed to read path from javaldx
/opt/libreoffice4.4/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libdbus-glib-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I note that Synaptic says I have libdbus-glib-1-2 (v 0.100.2-1) installed and
JRE and default-jre (2:1.7-51) installed, so I'm feeling rather lost now.
Any suggestion? Since now I have no working LO. Any idea what I've done
wrong?
Oh, and I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS which I believe is sufficiently up to
date.
