Hi wanted to read ppt on my netbook so tried with software manager to install the appropriate package but it did not install so tried to install libreoffice 4. The remove old version worked but the new install although it ran did not install. I am now without any libreoffice products. 
All help gratefully received.
Nigel
How did you try to install LO4 ? … from the PPA ? … that won’t work, as Peppermint 2 is now end of life.
You have 3 options -
Remove the PPA and reinstall LO3.
Download the LO4 .deb files and install them:
Download LibreOffice | LibreOffice - Free Office Suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft
Install Peppermint 3 which still has 4 years support to go.
First I’d try option 2 … if you want instructions, just ask

Hi
can you provide an idiot guide to the install as tried to follow the libreoffice instructions and it didnt seem to work from memory it seemed to ask for aptitude which i dont appear to have
thanks
Hi wanted to read ppt on my netbook so tried with software manager to install the appropriate package
What application were you trying to install?
My understanding is that LO 3.x can open ppt files in impress ???
If you just want to re-install Libreoffice then try:
sudo apt-get update
then
sudo apt-get install libreoffice-calc libreoffice-writer libreoffice-draw libreoffice-impress
See if that will install all the bits needed
[FIXED Instructions]
To install LO4 … open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run these commands in sequence:
sudo apt-get remove --purge libreoffice*
then
mkdir -p ~/Desktop/delete-me/main ~/Desktop/delete-me/langpack ~/Desktop/delete-me/helppack
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/main
then
wget http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/4.0.1/deb/x86/LibreOffice_4.0.1_Linux_x86_deb.tar.gz
then
tar -xvf LibreOffice_4.0.1_Linux_x86_deb.tar.gz
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/main/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb/DEBS
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/langpack
then

then
tar -xvf LibreOffice_4.0.1_Linux_x86_deb_helppack_en-GB.tar.gz
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/helppack/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb_helppack_en-GB/DEBS
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Mark
all the steps work with the exception of the *.deb ones see example below
nigel@nigel-AOA150 ~/Desktop/delete-me/helppack $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
dpkg: error processing *.deb (–install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
*.deb
nothing seems to be in menu for libre office
Sezo
tried your suggestion before Mark’s but nothing was installed
OK, my miistake … I’ll fix the above instructions, but you just need to run:
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/main/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/langpack/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb_langpack_en-GB
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/helppack/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb_helppack_en-GB
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

thanks in advance
menu>Preferences>Software Sources no such item
No, I mean go to the “menu” button on your bottom panel … then the submenu Preferences … then the submenu Software Sources
Now what is the “Download from:” field set to ?
hi hope not being stupid but when I click on menu then preferences there is no submenu software sources
in system tools there is a software sources and its set to download from UK
Now what happens if you run:
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/main/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb/DEBS
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/langpack/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb_langpack_en-GB/DEBS
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
then
cd ~/Desktop/delete-me/helppack/LibreOffice_4.0.1.2_Linux_x86_deb_helppack_en-GB/DEBS
then
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
?
is LibreOffice 4 installed now ?
