Hi :) Congrats!! Nicely done! :) Yeh, that surprised me too. I had assumed it would work the same way as the Windows installer 'should' do. Congrats and regards from Tom :) On 16 February 2015 at 12:17, M Henri Day <mhenriday@gmail.com> wrote:

I'm not sure what happened when i installed the official one from the LibreOffice website. Can't quite remember that far back tbh. When i use a package-manager to isntall the default one in the repos i can select all sorts of components and maybe Extensions and stuff. I thought it was the same for all Linux, especially for 'Ubuntu clones'? (although i think it's been a loooong time since Mint could be claimed to be that) I thought the Windows version had pretty much everything all in one package (and the the help files in a separate bundle)? Then the Linux, Bsd and Mac version allowed a bit more finesse? I still don't know where to get Base from as i was fairly convinced it was included in the main Windows install automatically. Regards from Tom :)As you know, Tom, Linux Mint is a fork of Ubuntu, so generally speaking, that which applies to the latter applies, *ceteribus paribus*, to the former. Could you tell me just *how* you managed to install Base on Ubuntu ?... HenriTom, I just took a chance and performed a search for LibreOffice in the Linux Mint Program Manager . To my joy, I found that it was possible to install individual LO programmes, including libreoffice-base via this service. Said and done ; I installed it and Base now launches as it should with a simple click in the LibreOffice window. Hallelujah !...

I have Java 8 installed and it's being detected in Tools-Options asyouindicated. I tried launching it directly (not via the startup screen) and there doesn't appear to be any executable for it - only scalc.exe and swriter.exe It seems that Base, Impress, Draw and Math are not installed with themaininstaller? Do I need to get them from somewhere else?In LO 4.4.0.3 on my (64-bit) Linux Mint 17.1 machine, I can open Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, and Math with no problem, but klicking on Base does nothing at all ; the service simply doesn't launch. On my (64-bit) Windows 8.1 machine, however, Base launches just as it should. How can I get it to do so on my Linux box, which is the one I generally use ?... Henri
