Re: [libreoffice-users] LO Installer Download Problems

Hi :)
Hmmm, that is not good news!  Sorry about that!  Is there any chance you could post a bug-report 
about it?  A lot of this guide might not be relevant but please just try to make the best of it
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport

tehre is another page but i think the content is identical
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport

This sometimes happens with wikis as things get moved around but it usually gets tidied up at some 
point.  I would go with the 1st of those links this time.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

My main computer is OSX and I use Firefox or Chrome.   I think I was 
using Firefox on OSX when I had the download problems on OSX.  The 
Windows computer was also using Chrome and/or Firefox.
