Hi,
I'm aware that recently there has been some changes in libreoffice
package. The problem is that yesterday I updated my system and
surprisingly only libreoffice-common was updated. By that I mean that
I mean that not base, writer, impress... were available after the
update, they dissapered. Moreover, if I make "pacman -S libreoffice"
only  "libreoffice-common" is targeted and there is no traces of
libreoffice-calc,  libreoffice-base,  libreoffice-draw.... The thing
is that there seems to be a container called libreoffice which it is
suppose to contain all this basic packages but in my case only
installs "libreoffice-common". What I'm doing wrong? I hope it is not
expected that we install one by one the components we want.
Thanks in advance,
Hector

My only (small) gripe is that libreoffice-gnome maybe should be called
libreoffice-gtk.

As a user of xfce I was slightly puzzled but the naming saying gnome as
it sort of implies that it is specific to gnome, however the description
clarifies that it applies to any gtk dependent DE. Maybe the naming
should be general and the description should state gnome,xfce and
anything else gtk dependent that is officially supported by arch.

and libreoffice-kde4 should be libreoffice-qt.

I'm not sure about this, it pulls in at least phonon, which is kde
specific.


oh, i didn't install that. that was a blind guess. :-P

best regards,

I didn't go through with it either but I had a look at what it would
pull. libreoffice-gnome pulls nothing on my system, no gconf, no other
gnome dependencies. libreoffice-kde pulls phonon and a bunch of other
kde dependencies.

So I'd suggest:
libreoffice-gnome ->  libreoffice-gtk (version?)
libreoffice-kde4 (leave it)

It's not consistent but it reflects reality.


I'm fairly sure these are just following upstream naming so I doubt they will change.
