How To: Libre Office 4.0 PPA Installation

Post by nomko »

To all LO users, there's a PPA available now!

To add the PPA, run the following terminal commands:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-4-0

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
Uninstall the old version of LO and after that install the 4.0 version.

Adding the main LibreOffice PPA which will get updates not only with LibreOffice 4.0.x but also newer versions, use the following commands:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update

Hi Guys, I had this problem when trying to upgrade to LibreOffice 4. It's important to follow the instructions given in the download. 1st uninstall the old version, then install 4 via the Terminal.
Good luck.
