Bug ID: 101021
Summary: Content of Bibliography Database gets deleted upon
reinstall
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.1.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: bba...@gmail.com
A new Bibliography database was created when I installed 5.5.1 (may not be the
right number because it was not in the version drop down menu) and 4.3.7.2 was
auto-removed. I lost all my Bibliography references in the DB. This may need to
be taken into account in the Installer.
According to Alex Thurgood (in Bug 98665): Unfortunately a known and
longstanding issue with installation packets. Each new version of LO replaces
the built-in bibliography database (because it is hardcoded into the app). As a
user, one needs to remember to save the bibliography database before installing
a new version, and then copy it back to the appropriate place.
