[tdf-discuss] Request: Installation Instructions

Hi, :slight_smile:

I've drafted an amended readme for the LibreOffice Linux downloads,
that contains:

- detailed instructions for installing LibreOffice on Debian/Ubuntu,
Fedora, Suse and Mandriva, with supporting notes for other Linux
distribs;

- detailed instructions for installing language packs on all the above distribs;

- detailed instructions for de-installing an existing LibreOffice
installation, covering all the above Linux distribs.

It would be useful to proofread what I've added, for technical
correctness and accuracy.

I've filed a bug report on the tracker [1], together with the updated
readme in ODT format. I've also uploaded the file to the wiki [2]. The
wiki would probably be the best version to proofread/correct? (I've
set a watch on the file, so I'll be notified about any updated version
that gets uploaded, and will update the bug report as necessary.)

Please feel free to add your technical comments to the bugtracker [1]
rather than here; I'll be watching that bug and will ensure that any
necessary corrections/amendments get applied.

Hopefully, these instructions be included with the next release, and
maybe the existing download will be updated.

Thanks if so. :wink:

HTH.
