Some years ago I copied the /opt/openoffice.org2/ directory to an USB stick and ran /opt/openoffice.org2/program/soffice on another Linux machine which allowed starting executables from external drives. The office started creating a new user profile since there was no profile before. Missing file name associations should not hinder anybody to open the right files with the right program. There must be a configuration setting which lets you reuse the same user profile and extensions on the mobile block device. Nevertheless, I think that all Linux desktops have some ODF capable software installed so nobody really needs a mobile version for Linux (apart from macro junkies of course). -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Can-Libre-Office-be-installed-on-an-external-drive-tp3309620p3310700.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
