Re: [libreoffice-users] 4.0.3 64-bit DEB removed my extensions, but Windows version did notI

YES, it works for you but I am not using Unity.
How many users with MATE are having the same issues?
Do anyone using KDE or the other desktop have any issues.

I know that there has been work done to make the DEB install work 
properly with Unity.
Has there been any work to make sure it works as well with the other 
desktops?

That might be the issue here.
MATE and Cinnamon are the desktops for people who liked GNOME 2.x style 
of desktop and did not want to switch to Unity, GNOME 3.x, KDE or the 
others.  I hate Unity and GNOME 3.x.  The same reasons I hate Win8's 
desktop.  If you read the articles, you will find many users went to 
Mint Linux and other distros to get away from Unity.  Mint having both 
MATE and Cinnamon desktop versions, got a lot of users from Ubuntu.  I 
stuck with Ubuntu, but chose MATE desktop environment.

SO
it may be a MATE issue, or may not.
So I ask if any MATE or Cinnamon desktop users are having the same issues.
