I thought I was getting the build from TDF rather than from Ubuntu/Debian. Yet, when I opened Synaptic and looked at what I had installed, it indicated that I had gotten the build from Ubuntu/Debian, namely 1:3.6.6~RC2-0ubuntu~precise~ppa2. That download was approximately 97 MB. The TDF built download (3.6.6.2) is 179 MB. So, what are the difference between these two builds? Since I am involved in TDF documentation, I probably need to continue to download the builds from the TDF website. Thanks for sending me a copy of what you posted to QA. It was very thoughtful of you. I am subscribed to the QA mailing list so this will not be necessary. (I also am subscribed to the DEV, documentation, and user mailing lists (I'm not sure how important this is to others. --Dan ___ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
