Hi :) Ouch! Perhaps just reboot the machine (rofls). That typical Windows answer has actually helped me in Ubuntu sometimes which was worrying! Just closing and then re-opening the package manager might help as they seem to do a bit of tidying and fresh scanning in the process.
In no particular order ... Can you install the 64bit as though installing it in parallel with an 'existing' install (even tho the 'existing' one has been uninstalled)? http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel I'm not sure how that page does it so it might be fairly unhelpful. Have you tried re-installing the 32bit again and see if that has problems too? If not it might uninstall more cleanly 2nd time around or you might spot what's going wrong now you know to watch for problems. Have you used the package manager to search for installed items to do with libreoffice/soffice, checked the history of the last actions the package manager took? Again i am not sure if it would help but it's probably the easiest thing to look at quickly even if it's not helpful.

To: "Libre, Users" <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, 8 October, 2011, 11:12 I made a mistake yesterday and installed 32bit packages (RPM) downloaded from Libreoffice website onto a 64bit machine. I thought that wouldn't matter much but I was wrong. The icons wouldn't surface on the overview mode (Gnome-3). So I removed the packages via yum and got the 64bit packages. Problem is, they wouldn't install because yum reports series of conflicts on files installed by the previous packages. They have been removed! Which conflict again? All attempts to install the 64bit version now fail with this error. Someone has either forgotten to add code that instructs the rpm database of removal of locally installed packages OR ... My machine is b0rked somewhere else. So I reverted to 3.3.3 on my network and all went fine (is it because it sees that as a repo?). Why couldn't I install 3.4 (64bits) after removing the 32bit version? It was removed via yum! I'm spooked --------------------------------------------- from [email protected] :) -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
