Its good to see that there are now .DEB packages for installation
because for awhile there wasn't. I'm thankful for all the suggestions,
it just seems I need to get a good grounding in Terminal theory now. I'm
glad I made the change over to Ubuntu as there is so much more support
out there for it when compared to other distros. I'm only having some
compatibility issues with it at the moment (My android phone is not
being detected even though I have done so much config for it lol)

Hi Anthony,
This is how I update to each new version of the Document Foundation
version of Libre Office. This is for the 64 bit version, but simply
substitute the 32 bit version for the 64 bit. This is for the latest
3.6.4.3 release:
Download LibO_3.6.4.3_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_3.6.4.3_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_3.6.4.3_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/*.deb 3.
sudo dpkg -i
~/Desktop/LibO_3.6.4.3_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/libreoffice3.6-debian-menus_3.6.4-3_all.deb
A shorter option is as follows:
1 Download the appropriate file(s)
2 tar zxvf ./<wherever you downloaded to>/<downloaded '.tar./gz'
file>
3 sudo dpkg -iR ./<as above>/<extracted installation
directory>/DEBS
The 'R' option, as suggested by it's character, invokes a recursive
operation on all .deb files in all sub-directories, thus avoiding the
redundant operation on the desktop integration stuff.
