A new question came up: How do I install the downloaded *.tar.gz ?
I tried all I know , apt-get from Desktop, from CD with synaptic and and and..,
No success. Can anybody help me?
Where do I have to expand the package to? I could not find a folder called program.

Hello Papaoskar,

The installation is very simple.
  1. Unpack the archive LibreOffice_4.3.2.2_stripped_Linux_PPC.tar.gz in your home directory

    Code: Select all

    tar zxvf LibreOffice_4.3.2.2_stripped_Linux_PPC.tar.gz
  2. Change to the program directory

    Code: Select all

    cd LibreOffice_4.3.2.2_stripped_Linux_PPC/program/
  3. Start LibreOffice with

    Code: Select all

    ./soffice.bin
Have a lot of fun with the new LibreOffice! :-)
