When removing in Synaptic, you must take care to remove the package libreoffice4.1-debian-menus which is not selected when marking other libreoffice4.1 package. This bug tracker is not an helpdesk. If you have difficulties to install LibreOffice, please ask first for help on users mailing list or on http://ask.libreoffice.org. As you use the French localized version, you can ask for help on users@fr.libreoffice.org. Best regards. JBF Dear Jean-Baptiste Faure, Thank you for your answer. I'll do what you say in the future. By the way, I didn't think the http://ask.libreoffice.org/ was the right place to put my comment. But maybe I should have say that the main trouble was not coming from libreoffice itself but from http://fr.libreoffice.org/home/lisez-moi/#d%C3%A9sinstallation_Linux which should be updated to insist on the fact that "Mark for Complete Removal" should be selected and that, as you explain me, the package libreoffice4.1-debian-menus should be removed too. Thank you for your nice answer. By the way, in my case, not removing package libreoffice4.1-debian-menus didn't created any trouble. Regards, Alf. |

Problem description: Despite installation of 4.1.3.2, Libreoffice identifies itself as version identified as 4.1.3.2. Steps to reproduce: I had version 4.1.3.2 of LibreOffice. I uninstall it using synaptic ("Mark for Removal" - NB: I donno if those are the exact words in English version, I translate it from French...). I followed in fact what was written here: http://fr.libreoffice.org/home/lisez-moi/#d%C3%A9sinstallation_Linux I then install the 4.1.3.2 proprely, as I had done in the past (ie: going into the /DEBS directory and typing "sudo dpkg -i *.deb". Installation seems to go properly. I installed both LibreOffice_4.1.3.2_Linux_x86-64_deb, LibreOffice_4.1.3.2_Linux_x86-64_deb_helppack_fr and LibreOffice_4.1.3.2_Linux_x86-64_deb_langpack_fr. However, when I started LibreOffice Draw, it told me it was version 4.1.3.2 and that a new version was available. I tried to run libreoffice writer but it just crash asking for an absent library or something like that. Just in case, I try to reinstall it. However, this time instead of choosing "Mark for Removal", I selected "Mark for Complete Removal" (ie with configuration files). I then reinstalled Libreoffice as written above and this time it works fine, with the proper version number and no trouble. By the way, I noticed the English version of the "howto install" available here http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/installation/linux/#De-Installation_of_a_Previous_Version_of_Community-Supplied_LibreOffice_for_Linux strongly advises for a complete removal. Operating System: Linux (Other) Version: 4.1.3.2 release Last worked in: 4.1.2.3 release
