Re: [libreoffice-users] No menus for LibreOffice install on Chrubuntu

Hi Tom,

I did that, and I also tried downloading from the PPA. The same thing 
happened. I'm sure this has to be a Chrubuntu issue since my installs 
have always worked fine on other Ubuntu installs. One strange thing 
though. When I was purging the failed installed, I had an error message 
show up in the terminal, once yesterday, and once today, saying:
> Reading package lists... Done
> W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ 
> stable/main amd64 Packages 
> (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-amd64_Packages)
> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
I did run the apt-get update, but that didn't change anything. I don't 
know why that would show up when I'm purging LibreOffice. I wasn't smart 
enough to think about going to that file and editing it until now.

Thanks for your concern and assistance!

Don
