Hi :) +1 it's a historical problem. LibreOffice is moving towards a more normal installer. Sun wasn't keen on such gimmicks when developed by the community. Go-oo didn't need a decent installer because it didn't develop so fast = so it could settle on whichever version was supplied in the OS.
LibreOffice does develop quickly and people do want to keep up so it kinda does need a normal installer and is developing one.

I have no idea why they do it that way. There are other programs available where clicking on the RPM works fine. -- 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 -- 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
