LibreOffice Portable

LibreOffice updater

Submitted by jojothehobo on May 28, 2019 - 5:01pm

LibreOffice used to update as part of the regular update process when I opened PortableApps. That doesn't seem to be happening now.

When I open any LibreOffice component I get a prompt that a new version is available and that I should to download the update. I did that, but I am holding off installing it until I learn a little more since I use LibreOffice daily. The version I downloaded is 6.2.3 and is a 288 MB Windows installer package.

"LibreOffice 6.2.2 Portable MultilingualAll.paf" contains only few languages in the list from the kit window

"LibreOffice 6.2.2 Portable MultilingualAll.paf" does not contain all languages. Contains only a few languages (in fact, it is the standard kit with only a few languages in the installation list from the kit window).
Eg., my language, Romanian, is missing in the language list from the installation kit window.
I have updated with this kit and deleted the Romanian language from Libreoffice Portable, by ticking "Remove Extra Language" on installation.
Please re-correct the kit.
Thank you for understanding.

Portable Built-in Help?

Submitted by chumbo on February 22, 2019 - 4:52am

Hi,
Is it possible to have a portable built-in Help? It's not in the portable version and when you try to open it and redirects you either to an online version or invites you to download it from the Libreoffice website.

But I only found an .msi installer for the built-in Help which makes me think that when I move my portable folder, it will be lost.
Anyway to have the built-in help portable?
Thx!

Update to 6.1.4 Rev 2 fails

Submitted by paulvp on January 19, 2019 - 4:02pm

I've been trying for several days to update LO to 6.1.4 Rev 2 via the PA platform but have had no success. The PA updater appears to make two attempts to download the file and then presents an error message: 'Download Error: Reget error on file'. This is followed by a lengthy URL.

I find it's not unusual to get an error on intial attempts to update for any app. Usually a second or perhaps thrid attempt is successful though. I've tried perhaps 20 times over the last few days to update LO without success.

Thoughts?
