Re: [libreoffice-users] Help file downloaded does not appear

Hi :)

The 9.04 was not an LTS release and might not be supported anymore.  That is 
possibly why you are having trouble accessing the repositories to install 
programs.  There are tricks to upgrading the system to avoid having to re-format 
the partition.  


Could you get to a command-line and give us the result of 

sudo fdisk -l

where "-l" is a lower-case "-L".  This will show us how your partitions are laid 
out.  Do you know if you already have a separate /home partition to keep your 
data&settings safely away from the rest of the OS?  Don't worry if you don't 
know as the fdisk command will give us a clue.

On the other hand it could just be that they are having temporary server 
troubles.
http://linuxmint.com/
"We’re experiencing server issues with the Linux Mint repository at the moment. 
While we’re investigating the problem, you can switch to one of our mirrors by 
launching the “Software Sources” tool. From mintMenu: 
Menu->Administration->Software Sources From the command line: sudo 
software-properties-gtk Then simply click on “Download from Main Server”, select 
“Other”, and choose a mirror"

Try the advice from their website first.  If that doesn't help then perhaps 
consider downloading Mint 10 although waiting for Mint 11 might be better if you 
can hold-out that long.  Ubuntu 11.04 has just been released a few days ago so 
Mint 11 will follow.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Help file downloaded does not appear

I am running 64 and 32 bit Linux mint 9 (based on Ubuntu LTS 9.04)

After downloading the core package.  English dictionary and Help file.

It tells me Help is not installed.

I have used the Synaptic Package manager to re install it to no avail.

Thesaurus does not work either.
