Okay, I wrote to the list about some issues with .docx files, and it was suggested to me to try and install a more updated version (I have the 3.5.4.2 from Debian Wheezy repos).
I downloaded both 4.0.6 and 4.1.2, and can not install either one. 4.1.2 comes with an install script, but it asks for an rpm directory. I have no rpms. I downloaded the .deb package. When I try to give it the DEBS/ dir, it fails. I didn't try further with that. 4.0.6 has no install script, so I tried to install the debs manually. First, I just cd-ed to that dir and did $ for i in $(ls); do dpkg -i $i; done but this does them in alphabetical order, which won't work. It needs them out of order. I tried to install those it was asking for initially (like, when it says Selecting previously unselected package libobasis4.0-base. (Reading database ... 326826 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking libobasis4.0-base (from libobasis4.0-base_4.0.6.2-2_amd64.deb) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libobasis4.0-base: libobasis4.0-base depends on libobasis4.0-core01; however: Package libobasis4.0-core01 is not installed. So I tried to install libobasis4.0-core01 first...needed libreoffice4.0-ure_4.0.6.2-2_amd64.deb So I installed that one, and then the core[01,07] files individually. Then I did ls -1 > deblist vi deblist deleted those that were already installed from this list, plus the desktop-integration directory. THEN, I was able to to for i in $(cat deblist); do dpkg -i $i; done This newer version does appear to be handling .docx files better. thanks, Tony -- http://www.baldwinlinguas.com translations, interpreting, localization and multilingual web design EN, ES, FR, PT -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
