Description Frederic Parrenin 2017-06-27 10:35:13 UTC

When you go to fr.libreoffice.org to download LibreOffice, the site provides .tar.gz files. But if you try to gunzip them, you will get an error since they are actually plain .tar files.
It took me some time to figure this out.

Hi, this is how the files are named, see here:
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/5.3.4/deb/x86_64/
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/5.3.4/deb/x86_64/LibreOffice_5.3.4_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz.mirrorlist
@Xisco, maybe something to check with Cloph? Sophie
