Re: [libreoffice-users] LOo 3.5.1.2 upgrade in Ubuntu Natty does not 'see' old templates

Hi Fabian,

I've been using Ubuntu for 3+ years. A few years ago I had some issues 
with the Ubuntu OpenOffice packages. It might not have been their fault 
since I had non-repo versions installed when I did an upgrade. To fix 
that problem, I did a complete uninstall of the Ubuntu version and 
installed the official OpenOffice version. Ever since then I've used 
only the official OpenOffice version before LibreOffice came along, and 
the official LibreOffice version from http://www.libreoffice.org/. they 
aren't as pretty, but functionality has been very good. I've been 
running 3.5.2 on Ubuntu 11.10 and also 12.04 Beta 2 without any issues. 
And the recent documents function works perfectly fine in the 
LibreOffice version in Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 Beta 2. Here is how I do 
my install: (This is for the 64 bit version.)

Download LibO_3.5.2_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz to the desktop.
Right click on it and extract it to the desktop. This will give you the 
folder LibO_3.5.2rc2_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US
Run the following terminal commands to install it:
1. sudo apt-get remove libreoffice*.*
2. sudo dpkg -i 
~/Desktop/LibO_3.5.2rc2_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/*.deb
3. sudo dpkg -i 
~/Desktop/LibO_3.5.2rc2_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/libreoffice3.5-debian-menus_3.5-202_all.deb

If you need help for the 32 bit version, please let me know.

Don
