I do not use Repository or PPA for installing LibreOffice. I download the Debian install from the web site. The only issue with that is you will need to remove the previous installed version first. That is a whole different discussion why that is required. I run 4.0.5 on Ubuntu and have one Windows system using 4.1.1. -- To unsubscribe 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
