|
|
I removed libreoffice from my 2011 HP 64-bit machine because a Power Point style presentation I had been working on no longer worked after I saved it to .pptx and I was unable to figure out how to correct it easily.
I began installing the openoffice Linux 64 distro and got as far as installing the menu from CLI/root using the Mandriva menu version found the the OpenOffice download, "desktop-integrationi" folder. When I used RPM to install the rest of OpenOffice, RPM told me that this was a version meant for an unknown distro.
I saw no way to proceed, so I decided to re-install LibreOffice. But now LibreOffice (using drakconf) tells me that the file 'soffice' is blocked by something from OpenOffice. I had used RPM to remove the OpenOffice menu (the only thing from OpenOffice I had installed), so I decided to reinstall the menu to remove it thoroughly again; but when I do that, RPM tells me that OpenOffice menu is already installed. And when I try to remove it, RPM tells me that it is not installed.
I removed /usr/lib/menu/openoffice.org3.4-mandriva-menus but I still get a message: "[i]file /usr/bin/soffice from install of libreoffice-common-3.4.6-0.1.i586 conflicts with file from package openoffice.org3.4-mandriva-menus-3.4-9590.noarch[/i]".
So where else does the "desktop-integration" rpm put files? |
