When I upgraded/updated a computer's OS - specifically Ubuntu Linux - 
the problem was the upgrading was that it removed the version of 
LibreOffice I had installed myself and install the repository's version. 
This has downgraded LibreOffice from a current version to one that was 
released 1 or 2 years earlier.
I did a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04 and it had the newest version of 
LibreOffice in its repository. So it installed 6.0.3.2 on that system.
NOW, it seems that when I dealt with a "release upgrade" from 16.04LTS 
to 18.04LTS, the process left the 5.4.5 version alone. That would be 
great if I had a newer version than what it wanted to install. This was 
the first time the version of LibreOffice was not changed during the 
upgrade/update process.  That is why I wanted to post this to our 
LibreOffice User list. Now, we no longer have to reinstall the version 
we had before the process started.
Yes, I now use LibreOffice 6.0.3.2 on every system that I have upgraded 
the Linux operating systems. Yes, for those Windows installs, I am 
upgrading the 5.x.x version[s] to latest 6.0.x version at the time I do 
the process.
SO, I just wanted our Linux users that at least Ubuntu no longer 
downgrade the install of LO and install "there repository version".  I 
would love to see the repositories to keep upgrading the LibreOffice 
version to the newest ones.
