Re: [libreoffice-users] Update

One word of caution, based on my experiences where LO has somehow reinstalled itself (my computer 
is flaky and about to be shipped to the manufacturer for further examination, so it may not be LO 
at fault): be sure to back up your profile files first.  Your data files should be fine, but you 
could find your templates and preferences gone.

(The issue appears to be unique to me, but if it can happen to someone it can happen to anyone!).
