Re: Can't manage to uninstall Libreoffice-base 4.3
Hi,
On my way to upgrading to Libreoffice 4.3 I managed to make a mess of it. I've been Googling around, and landed here. I hope some one can help. I have tried removing libreoffice-base via Synaptic, and every known Terminal command that I can think of to use. However, I always end up here:
adler@adler-HP-Spectre-XT-Ultrabook-PC ~ $ sudo apt-get clean
adler@adler-HP-Spectre-XT-Ultrabook-PC ~ $ sudo apt-get autoremove

Thank you! That did the trick.
PatH57,
Thanks for that, but I already tried that, and running Bleachbit, in Root, and as USR.
All in all, updating to the latest libreoffice4.3, has not been easy. LOL!
Gentlemen, thank you for your help!
