I just downloaded LO 5.2.2.2 for Windows from LibreOffice.org using Firefox
and installed on my Windows 7 (64 bit) notebook without problem.  The
program opens and appears to work correctly.

Hi there,

I'd like to file serious complaints about Libre Office.

A. The downloads
 We've been users for several years of Open Office. When Libre Office
started as a fork, we decided it was a wise thing to go on with Libre
Office. We don't had any complaint about it until version 5.1.5 It was'nt
possible to download a proper MSI file. We tried different mirrors, like
Nluug.nl, Ut.twente.nl, mirrors.supportex.net and tu.chemnitz.de . All
downloads were corrupted.

We tried this with machines from two private networks, about  6 laptops
and 4 workstations. With Vista 32 , win7 32 and 64, with win10 32 and 64.

After this we tried 5.2.2 with the same result.: statements like "this is
not a valid msi file", corrut installation file  or an halfway cut off
installationprocedure. We tried to upgrade five times since the release of
5.2.2 on juli 28.

We asked for help, the aswers came: Something like "you don't have the
appropiate drivers or maybe an update of Win10 or bullshit like that.

So  we installed version 5.1.4.2 again, a version  without those
kindergartenbugs.

We're not the only people who experienced the bug, there are more who have
encountered this one.

B.
The community login.
I tried again to log in on the Q and A site of the community. And then,
the captcha widget didn't work. The program told us to use an updated
browser. Very intelligent, maybe someone can tell me where to get a newer
version of Firefox 49.0.1 ?

My question is: How about quality control? Because if all stays the same
we, and without any doubt a lot other users, will look for an alternative.

Imho, it would  be a shame if this doesn't change. There's a lot of
volontary work done, done by the people of the community, wich will go
through the drain. I would call this respectless...


grtz,
