LibreOffice + language packs (latest version: 6.1.4)

[vicmz]

Well, I just downloaded the 4.2.4 with hopes to install this weekend. So much for that... on with the new!

Don't worry, these are usually small updates to correct/improve a few things. If your current copy of LibreOffice works fine, there's no need to switch, and you can wait for the next major version to be released (according to schedule next is v4.3.0 after July 21st).

has anyone else noticed a problem with the middle click copy/paste in 4.3.0?
on all three of my machines--precise 5.5, 5.6, 5.7--the selection doesn't get fully copied or gets copied in some mangled manner or it doesn't register at all. the function works fine in all my other programs and the ctrl+c/ctrl+v works perfectly fine in libre, but this is definitely buggy from where i sit, so i personally recommend 4.2.5 for now. anyway, figured i should report this. the file is my own generated from 01micko's program. the pet conversion is similarly afflicted. not sure how slacko variants fared with it.

reboots didn't fix it, changing the parcelite and glipper settings didn't fix it, and making sure it was set to recognize middle click behavior in tools>options>view didn't fix it (that part was okay to begin with).

update:

it appears the behavior might be related to a 4.3 fix for the inability of 4.2 to easily transfer text between the main document and the comments (i used to have to copy it to leafpad or similar to get it from the the comments into the body...don't remember if pasting into the comments was also a problem...). now you can paste into the comments with ctrl+v and paste from the comments into the body with either ctrl+v or a middle click. middle clicking to paste in the main of the document doesn't work, but in the comments you get use of both the middle click paste and the ctrl+v/context menu paste and can use either to place text into the document. middle click (in addition to ctrl+v/right click paste) can also be used to paste text from other sources into a writer document--it's only useless when it comes to grabbing text on the actual pages of a writer document: it will wipe out what's stored there if you do and you will only be able to use ctrl+v/context menu paste until a selection sourced from elsewhere is made to fill the void created when libreoffice writer 4.3 tried to middle-click select its own text.

guess i'll stick with the 4.3 series after all...

Vic and Puppus:

I wish that I saw this sooner! I would have petitioned to have you both on the Libre Membership Committee:

You are both doing a great service to all the puppy members by keeping up with the Libre updates and I'm very appreciative of this. It's almost an automatic expectation that you two will have a fresh update when they come out... so THANKS!!!!

Hi folks! Just to report these files are no longer on Google drive. Links from the first post: LibreOffice 4.3.0 (SFS) LibreOffice 4.2.5 (SFS) Cheers!

i personally only try to host the most recent of a given series. i removed 430 in favor of 431 and here's the 426 that superseded 425:

Didn't know that, thanx for sharing.

Didn't know that, thanx for sharing.

thanks for pointing it out. i'd have mentioned that i dropped the earlier packages here, but as of about three months ago, every file i've dropped from my repo for tidying purposes has been accompanied by a message telling me that it's still shared on other users' drives. i checked a few times and found the links to files i deleted invariably worked. seeing that's no longer the case, i guess others are doing some fall pruning as well. anyway, i read you can run the 4.2 series and 4.3 series at the same time on the same computer, which the makers of LO may have pointed out with this release because it is something new. i've never tried it, but it's a conceivably useful feature.

I updated the links. Dogfellow's packages are now on the first page. There's also an updated SFS of libreoffice including Spanish language. The link to French libreoffice is to the ASRI Éducation forum which will likely update its version including French language soon. For more languages, users can install one of the langpacks from the first page, or request a langpack if there isn't a package of their language yet.
