Tom, I just took a chance and performed a search for LibreOffice in the Linux Mint Program Manager . To my joy, I found that it was possible to install individual LO programmes, including libreoffice-base via this service. Said and done ; I installed it and Base now launches as it should with a simple click in the LibreOffice window. Hallelujah !...
