Installing LibreOffice.org on openSUSE 12.1 LXDE

openSUSE 12.1 comes with LibreOffice. 3.3 by default. To enable LibreOffice 3.5 on openSUSE 12.1 you can either download the RPMs from the LibreOffice site and manually install or add the LibreOffice Unstable Repo

zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_12.1/ LO

Refresh the repo

zypper ref LO


You can then install LibreOffice from Yast. Remember to add the libreoffice-gnome package or the LibreOffice will look butt ugly.

If you are using the LXDE flavour of Ubuntu, Lubuntu, remember to add libreoffice-gtk for the same reason.

Enjoy!
