            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.
