I just performed as proposed above and the installation is a success; I have LibreOffice 6 without traces of LibreOffice 5.4timkb4cq wrote:
The easiest way to get LibreOffice 6 in MX-17 is to use the MX Package Installer.
Start -> MX-Tools -> Package Installer -> Full App Catalog (tab) -> Debian Backports Repo
Select libreoffice and libroffice-base and click Install.
Yes, it will automatically remove the older version as it installs.

Re: LibreOffice 6
Do you plan to eventually move this to the main MX17 repo? Is there any reason that, if you plan to do that, I should wait for that rather than using the backports option?
Re: LibreOffice 6
I think the plan is to move it in over the next couple of weeks. Whether you wait or not is your call, end result will be the same.

Re: LibreOffice 6
Those weeks became one day. I just saw it appear in my upgrade overview. Will this take care of the previous install, or is there something special I need to do?

Re: LibreOffice 6
Looks like it does, I don't see weird stuff in the menus or anything.
Works just fine, thanks!

Re: LibreOffice 6
I suspect this upgrade is why my LibreOffice applications stopped working this morning, reporting a missing dependency. This is the error I get trying to launch LibreOffice (loffice):
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so: undefined symbol: _ZN11LanguageTagC1ERKS_
Update: I eventually managed to fix this by doing a full removal of the LibreOffice suite and then re-installing. This morning's "apt upgrade" borked the whole suite. I don't think it is a good idea to do a big version bump of a major application like LibreOffice in the main repo. One of the reasons I use MX is because it's based on Debian Stable and is less likely to change or introduce surprises like this.

Re: LibreOffice 6
Thanks for the feedback, and sorry you had that problem.
We tested it a good amount, but certainly not for all languages.
