Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem installing extension

Just for completeness I give below the text of a message I recently
received concerning my original problem.

Graham

"Hi,

Sorry, I know it was 2 yeas ago but today, I had the same problem as you
with the installation of a french dictionnary on my libreoffice. Just to
let you know the solution :

sudo apt-get install python3-uno

I don't remember how to post on NG. If you can post the solution, i'm
pretty sure it will help someone one day :)

Regards (et bonne journée si tu parles Français ;) )

Sam"
