Next question. Has there been a change in where LibreOffice is
located? I installed LibreOffice 3.6.6.2 using the commands you gave
me above. This installed it in /usr/lib/libreoffice rather than
/opt/libreoffice3.6. As a result I have 3.5.6.2 installed as well
as 3.6.6.2.
/usr/lib/libreoffice is the properly packaged build from Ubuntu/Debian
packaging. /opt/libreoffice is the TDF builds which are backwards compatible
with ancient distros. Dont use them, if you can get properly packaged builds
IMHO.
Best,

Sorry, I meant 3.6.5.2 *not* 3.5.6.2.
But I am still a bit confused about what is available at the PPA.
I thought I was getting the build from TDF rather than from
Ubuntu/Debian. Yet, when I opened Synaptic and looked at what I had
installed, it indicated that I had gotten the build from Ubuntu/Debian,
namely 1:3.6.6~RC2-0ubuntu~precise~ppa2. That download was approximately
97 MB. The TDF built download (3.6.6.2) is 179 MB.
So, what are the difference between these two builds? Since I am
involved in TDF documentation, I probably need to continue to download
the builds from the TDF website.
Thanks for sending me a copy of what you posted to QA. It was very
thoughtful of you. I am subscribed to the QA mailing list so this will
not be necessary. (I also am subscribed to the DEV, documentation, and
user mailing lists (I'm not sure how important this is to others.
