Will try to download again tomorrow - however is too slow now.

Use BitTorrent...

But yes, packaging is a mess :-/

* Installer file name scheme was changed (now there is a URE package,
and I had to adapt the javascript, would have been nice to have known
beforehand)
* desktop-integration packages have wrong version-info
* lots of file conflicts in packages (extensions packages and also
core ones of 3.4 conflict with packages from 3.3 because the same
filepath is used)

Ah, that explains other complaints that I see.

→ can't update 3.3.2 to 3.4 because of the packaging conflicts.
→ can't just install 3.4 along with 3.3.2

Either 3.4 is allowed to be installed in parallel to 3.3, or not. In
the latter case it should obsolete/replace 3.3.2, not throw conflicts
at the user.

I always use this method
  http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Run_OOo_versions_parallel
which never gives any dependency / replacing / integration issues.
However, $ ~/libreoffice/program/soffice doesn't do anything (nor swriter, *)

This definitely is a problem that needs to be resolved before RC

I think I will keep the release of this beta as a secret. Anyhow there is more than enough interesting news :-)
