Hi :) You probably can't get a PPA or anything for Ubuntu 10.04 now. It is past it's end-of-life. Generally it is recommended to upgrade to 12.04 LTS (this time 5 years support). However a lot of people struggle with the Unity Interface and install Mate or Cinamon. Other people have switched to forks (often known as clones) of Ubuntu such as Mint. Personally i've found Unity fairly easy once i'd "given it a fair go".
So, my own personal recommendation would be to create a couple of extra partitions and install Mint to 1 and Ubuntu 12.04 to at least 1 more and then play around with those a bit until you can work them out. That way the GRUB boot-menu still offers you the familiar set-up for when you need to get things done. The simple answer is to just download LibreOffice from the official website http://www.libreoffice.org/ and install it just the same as you would on any Debian-family distro (such as Mint, Ubuntu, Debian, and seemingly endless others) either on its own https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_LibreOffice_on_Linux or in parallel with any other version of LibreOffice https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel Regards from Tom :) On 31 January 2014 03:23, Joel Madero <[email protected]> wrote: > On 01/30/2014 07:15 PM, Yadu Kishore wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Is it possible to install LibreOffice 4.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 ? >> >> Thanks, > I don't see why not but honestly I can't test.
