I attempted to install LibreOffice (office productivity suite (metapackage)) on my mint Linux system. 1. Synaptic said the package was broken - Image 1. I changed repositories and got it to install. 2. However, it would not start. Found that it had been installed as a file owned by root, so user could not run it. - Image 2. I changed owner to user.
3. I tried to start it, again, and got message 3.

The last time I tried to report a bug in this package, someone told me I was in the wrong place. I am not sure how talking to the package maintainers could be the wrong place!

Package info: Version: 1:5.1.4-0ubuntu1  (xenial-updates)


Unless I am mistaken, you are the package maintainers, so it does not matter what Linux system it is installed on, it should work, right?

Why is it not working? Why was it installed as root with files that cannot be updated by user?
