The latest installation instructions for LibreOffice
As you may know, LibreOffice 4.0.3 has been released for a while. In this article I will show you how to install LibreOffice 4.0.3 on Debian 7 Wheezy.
Let’s start. Follow this steps exactly for a successful installation:
Add the backports repository on Debian Wheezy:
$ sudo su
# echo 'deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
# echo 'deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
Update the system:
# apt-get update
Install LibreOffice:
# apt-get -t wheezy-backports install libreoffice
Gracias amigo por tu aportación, funciona, excelente.
Cheers 🙂
Yep -t is the trick, I like this distro but it’s really out of date like everything is massively out of date, from a securety standpoint I think thats really bad it comes with firefox 17 when 22 is out, this distro isnt more stable either i found becuse simple bug fixes arent applied KDE 4.9 I think 4.11 is out now = big fixes man, lots of old kde bugs Ive been running into that are fixed in newer versions, see I typed this fast but look no in browser spellcheing lol I’ll give it some more time I may go with mint full time, I jest cant stand the old bugs in strate debian
@Blister security updates are backported into the older versions you mention, so the system remains as secure as the latest versions. See:
http://www.debian.org/security/faq.en.html#version
Just quick mention. To improve its looks, you need to install `libreoffice-gnome|kde` as well like
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install libreoffice-gnome
or
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install libreoffice-kde
🙂
