> "Why would you need a portable version of LibreOffice for Linux?"
I'll give you my two major use cases:
1. I have more than one system, and I'm using different Linux distros
on each of them. Also, I have multiple virtual machines which I boot
up from time to time. I don't want to install LibreOffice on each of
them separately (and also, each one would give me a different LO
version through their respective native package management system.
Therefor I want run LibreOffice via a network share mounted on my
currently active system, This would only work with a "portable
version".
2. I want to run, evaluate, compare and debug multiple LO versions
side by side, without messing with my system libraries.
This works only with "portable versions" of LO.
If a Portable LibreOffice for Linux comes in the shape of an AppImage, it is
super-easy for me to manage things, because I only have to deal with 1 single
file for each LO version. If I have to manage complete directories, things
start to become more complex...
