Hi,

I see. Yes I am installing the deb packages downloaded from TDF.

Optimisation was the main reason I was cherry picking the packages, and
since Libreoffice comes with separate packages instead of one single
package, I thought it is encouraged when needed. Our old system is a 1.5
years old server which is using the legacy OOo. We are in process of
migrating the conversion server so I wanted to move to libreoffice for this
new setup.

Our old server has converted more than 100.000 files using jodconverter and
since Libreoffice comes with --convert-to argument, I also want to update
the conversion scripts to use this new native option and eliminate the
potential performance issues which come with the jodconverter. (Though we
didn't have any performance issues with the old setup since we don't convert
thousands of files daily, but native is almost always better right :))

I'll install the remaining packages to ensure the system stability. Disk
space was never an issue since we have 3 TB of space in this server,
optimisation was the main reason.

Thanks again for your help. This community is amazing. :)
