Do you really want to Purge it? How about all of the settings and options you have in the old version that you want in the new one? sudo apt-get remove libreoffice* Then I install the new version by installing the web site version, after it is uncompressed, in the terminal. I "cd" to the DEBS folder and then use the "dpkg" command. sudo dpkg -i *.deb I tend not to use the PPA system, since I install and use different versions on my various Ubuntu/MATE and Mint/MATE systems [Mint 13.x to Ubuntu 15.04] - as well as my Win7 systems. -- 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
