I have a possible work-around. You can use the portable version called LibreOfficePortable. It is available from http://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice_portable It looks like they haven't released a 3.4.x version yet (as of 2011/06/13), I suspect they may be waiting for the 3.4.1 release or something. However, the 3.3.2 version is available. LibreOfficePortable does not have any registry entries, all of its required components are stored in the "installation" folder. It is meant to run off flash drives (and not to leave a trace on the local machine), but works well off the hard drive too. LibreOffice Portable is packaged for portable use with permission from The Document Foundation. So, my suggestion is as follows: Download and *run* LibreOfficePortable 3.3.2 (I guess it's not technically correct to say "install", as it actually just extracts the required files). Copy your user settings to LibreOfficePortable (instructions are here http://portableapps.com/support/libreoffice_portable#local_settings). Don't worry, it's not difficult. It's just a one folder copy, I believe. Download LibreOffice 3.4.0 (as from the LibreOffice website http://www.libreoffice.org/download) Install LIbreOffice 3.4.0 Now, your computer has LibreOffice 3.4.0 installed, but it also has LibreOfficePortable 3.3.2. If you get issues with LibO 3.4.0 you can just close it and open the portable version. Unfortunately, this means you have to download 2 versions, which is probably not ideal. I haven't tried the suggestion mentioned in the wiki (as Cor Nouws mentioned, available at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel), this is just an additional suggestion.
