Remove unnecessary languages from the multilanguage option?

I ticked the bock which say to do so but there was no option to select which languages to keep after all. What's the trick?

Keeps Install Language plus English

It keeps whatever language the installer is running in plus English (since it's built-in).

And I can't select any languages of my wish, if I understand correctly Sad

Include or Not

If you select the Normal install, you either include the 10ish languages included or just English. If you want more than English, just install all of em. It's only a difference of about 100MB either way.

Why Romanian language

Why Romanian language disappeared from "Language the installer" (Libreoffice Portable)? Please return it again.
I want to install LibreOffice (portable) in Romanian language only and not in another language.
I expect a favorable response in this regard.

Thank you and best regards.

Normal vs All

You probably downloaded the 'Normal' package which includes the 10 most popular languages worldwide. Download the 'All' package, which includes all languages LibreOffice supports.

No. I didn't. I downloaded

No. I didn't. I downloaded "LibreOfficePortable_4.2.1_MultilingualAll.paf" in 03/13/2014. Now, in 03/24/2014, it's OK. Now, "Language the installer" window, from "LibreOfficePortable_4.2.2_MultilingualAll.paf", include Romanian Language. It was a bug.

Yes

You cant select the languages you want, you either get the big package with everything, the smaller one with a couple of languages or the expermiantal "one language only"-option.

Not Experimental

It's not experimental anymore. I just labeled it like that for the first year to be sure there were no problems.

you sure?

Last time I checked it was far too experimental. Many things didn't work and I wondered why. I tried a normal install and everything was fine again.

As far as I remember, with experimental option tooltips don't work, all wizards are broken, ...

Never Reported

Any reason why you didn't report this earlier? This is the first I remember hearing any mention of it.

Well,

normal installation is working. Experimental option isn't important enough for me to report bugs. Wink

It hasn't said experimental on either the page or in the installer in over a year.

.

I was talking about the quality of the option, not about the name. Blum

Installer Code

It turned out to be a bug in the custom installer code. The tips could be turned back on in options or, failing that, by deleting Data and resetting your options. The wizards issue happened because the templates directory was changed a few versions back, breaking the custom code. Both issues are fixed in LibreOffice Portable 4.2.2 which I'm sending over to The Document Foundation now.

If you ever notice an issue with a future release, please post a bug report.

I can't find the one language

I can't find the one language option. For me it was either all or nothing. Though if the difference is 100 MB only then no big deal.

There is be a checkbox on the second "page" of the installer for removing the languages.
