Re: SOLVED Re: [libreoffice-users] No menus for LibreOffice install on Chrubuntu
Hi Tom, I'm about a week behind on real work at the moment. I really think it is a Chrubuntu issue and not a LO office since I've not have any issues on a half dozen or more regular Ubuntu installs.

Re: [libreoffice-users] No menus for LibreOffice install on Chrubuntu
Hi Tom, I did that, and I also tried downloading from the PPA. The same thing happened. I'm sure this has to be a Chrubuntu issue since my installs have always worked fine on other Ubuntu installs. One strange thing though. When I was purging the failed installed, I had an error message show up in the terminal, once yesterday, and once today, saying: Reading package lists... Done W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable/main amd64 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-amd64_Packages) W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems I did run the apt-get update, but that didn't change anything. I don't know why that would show up when I'm purging LibreOffice. I wasn't smart enough to think about going to that file and editing it until now. Thanks for your concern and assistance!
