I noticed there were updates for everything related to OpenOffice today which reminded me, now that LibreOffice is the default, why keep OpenOffice?I removed OpenOffice and all its components.LibreOffice still runs unaffected, but now autoremove wants to uninstall LibreOffice as well.Is OpenOffice a dependency of LibreOffice? Should I reinstall OpenOffice?
View 7 RepliesI tried to install LibreOffice on the recommendation of my friend and it failed to install. Now I have neither LibreOffice or OpenOffice. I also cannot install OpenOffice from the Ubuntu software center. what can i do to have either one of these.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI installed Libreoffice on my Ubuntu 10.10 (through wubi), and uninstalled Openoffice afterwards. Everything's ok. But then I continue to receive updates for openoffice modules (which are a lot btw). From the Software Center, currently installed are libreoffice modules together with (I think) their openoffice counterparts. Now the question is, is it safe to remove the openoffice modules? Or does Libreoffice need them, too? How do I remove them completely from the updates?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI wanted to try LibreOffice out. I found a PPA for it, so I added the source, tried it out, didn't like it, and noticed that openoffice now won't work. Which isn't too big of a deal, but now I can't even get the software center to install it. It gives me some error that you can read in the screenshot. What can I do?

Gimp works fine editing and saving photos from/to the nfs share. kWrite can do its thing and read/create files on the NAS. Files I create with vim are visible and editable under windows. OpenOffice however, when I try an open a file I get "file is locked by unknown user." I open as copy and try saving to the share with a different name... No Dice, error saving to share the file is created on the share but it is empty. I did some reading and found a post that said to comment a line from a file called soffice, which I cannot find.
I've been a long time linux & Ubuntu fan/user. Since the clean install of 11.04, LibreOffice keeps crashing. No day would go past when using either Writer or Calc, that it will not crash. (I think OpenOffice had same issue on Ubuntu 10.10 but only later on in the cycle.) The recovery function works, but it's now beyond a joke to continue to work in such a way, given that I have used Linux exclusively. I develop web apps on Ubuntu, but am seriously thinking of going over to Windows 7 or even OSX if this continues much longer.
If I can't get this issue resolved, I'm going to stop using Linux, which I do not want to do. when searching for clues to issue on this forum and others, people mentioned a 'seg fault', this might be the issue I have, as I think I saw this reported on one of the error logs. I think a seg fault may have something to do with memory, but I don't know for sure.
I've been using ubuntu off and on for a while now and haven't gone in depth yet but have recently made the complete transfer from windows. I've been loving it however, I'm trying to link libreOffice Base to a mysql account on my netbook for a course in school but am not getting form controls. I've noticed that these comments were made in the software center and in many forums including this one I believe. I haven't seen a decent response to any of the other posts I saw and have been having other minor issues with libreOffice but have tolerated them so far. This just seems like nobody tested it at all.
I was trying to see what alternatives there were to libreOffice for 11.04. It turns out that it is a total nightmare trying to install and use any other software suite on ubuntu. I purged libreoffice but still cannot successfully install and use openoffice or gnomeoffice from the software center. I search online and in forums and all I see are articles and posts explaining how to ditch other suites and install libreoffice but I'm really trying to do the opposite at this point. I really want to love ubuntu but it is being very difficult to do so right now.
I just got an update for LibreOffice and got this error ... how can I fix it? I tried changing permissions of the sdraw.cfg file . E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libobasis3.3-en-us-help_3.3.0-18_i386.deb: trying to overwrite '/opt/libreoffice/basis3.3/help/en/sdraw.cfg', which is also in package libobasis3.3-en-us-draw 0

View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter I double click it's shortcut it takes LibreOffice Writer 35 seconds to come up fully. I've reinstalled it, played with the memory settings, no change. If I turn on quickstarter it works fine but as many people have noted, you have to turn quickstarter off before you shutdown otherwise the system hangs.
I would like LibreOffice to initialize within 10 seconds and be able to do a shutdown by just clicking shutdown.
I've recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 and Libreoffice 3.3. My Base is very very slow. I've already tried changing the JRE to the Oracle/Sun latest version and the problem is still there. The problem doesn't seem to be in the file, since I can open it on my Windows 7 Libreoffice, without any problems. Solving this bug is important for me to definitely migrate from Windows to Linux.
View 6 Replies View RelatedA few minutes ago, I added LibreOffice's PPA to my sources list. When I went to update my computer, this popped up:
Code:
An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
'E:Type 'a.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libreoffice-ppa-maverick.list' So I tried reporting this bug by tapping Alt+F2 and entering:
Code:
ubuntu-bug update-manager
Then an error pops up, saying it could not determining the package or source package name.
When I try clicking on Ubuntu Software Centre, nothing pops up
I'm really puzzled and would at least like to remove that LibreOffice PPA so I can use Ubuntu Software Centre.
Does anyone know when libreoffice will be released in the Ubuntu Repository?

I've recently converted two Ubuntu 10.04 (one 64, one 32bit) machines to LibreOffice. We've used OpenOffice.org since early 2.x The issue is a database file created in OOo and now needing to be accessed in LO. As far as I know, there shouldn't be any issue with file compatibility. On the 64 bit machine, (a Ubuntu server installation - not headless) the file opens with no trouble and is fully accessible. (forms, reports, tables, etc.) However, on the 32 bit machine, trying to access the file over the network on the server via samba (because we also have Windows machines on the network, so I serve it all up via samba) I am able to open the database, but get the following error when trying to access any table, form or report: The connection to the data source "Mattress Prices" could not be
established.
