[Solved] Desktop integration install error

Post by ThiSidUp »

I followed the terminal instructions for installing openoffice and all of the DEB files installed successfully. However, when installing the desktop integration I encounter an error as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
dpkg -i *.deb
(Reading database ... 155093 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking openoffice-debian-menus (from openoffice4.0-debian-menus_4.0-9714_all.deb) ...

Any help would be appreciated

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Use Synaptic for example to remove the remaining LibreOffice package. There may be a command line more direct, there are similar topics in the Linux section of the forum where I've moved your topic.

Please add [Solved] at the beginning of the title in your first post (top of the topic) with the edit button if your issue has been fixed.
LibreOffice 7.6.2.1 on Xubuntu 23.10 and 7.6.4.1 portable on Windows 10
