How can I update Libre Office 3.x and to the other upgraded programs with new features in Trusty Tahr?
You are right. I installed from the CD and updated from the ubuntu repository 12.04!
Hi Papaoskar,

I'll try to compile the new LibreOffice for our A-EON Live Remix distribution.

Rgds,

Hi All,

I can say, LibreOffice is a monster. :D It takes a very long time to compile it. It has many many many dependencies. :shock:

My autogen arguments:

The problem is, that LibreOffice 4.3.2.2 needs a lot of new libraries. The libs are too old for LibreOffice 4.3.2.2 on our A-EON Live Remix/Lubuntu 12.04.5. Therefore the package of the new LibreOffice is very big because it contains a lot of new system libraries.

Ya an inspiration

I must get my Live Remix installed and start playing with some of this stuff you create

I do eventually want to get a compiling environment setup since one of my old pasttimes was compiling and altering muds and playing them for fun... I used to compile them on the Amiga but vfork() didn't always cut it

The first test version: LibreOffice_4.3.2.2_Linux_PPC.tar.gz

It could be that you have to install some libraries packages.

The following command starts LibreOffice:

Code: Select all

./program/soffice.bin

I tested the new LibreOffice without any problems on the A-EON Live Remix DVD (live session).

I only had to install the Libgraphite2-2.0.0 package.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libgraphite2-2.0.0

What a big download (1gB)

Tested and it works fine under AEon DVD.

Bravo

Hoping the same LibreOffice for OS4 soon... ;)

Hi All,

I have stripped the binaries and libraries in the LibreOffice package for the A-EON Live Remix DVD. The normal unstripped directory has 2.8GB and the stripped directory has 380MB.

Download: LibreOffice_4.3.2.2_stripped_Linux_PPC.tar.gz

Please test the stripped version of LibreOffice.

Thanks,

Christian

Just for info: LibreOffice Base needs the package libhsqldb-java. You can install it with the following command:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libhsqldb-java
