Re: [libreoffice-users] Conflicts?

There is an option in the Extension Manager to find updates.  That is 
where I get the issue when I want to install the updates and sometimes 
the quickstarter will "block" the update, since you cannot shut down and 
restart LO completely with that option enabled.  I do not know if it is 
still true with the 4.x versions, but it has been at least a year since 
I enabled the quickstarter option on my Ubuntu desktop and/or my Windows 
laptop.
