Description: I had LO 6.1.3.2 and just installed 6.1.4.2. Some compnents of the previous installation, including user-defined dictionary and macros, gracefully reappear in the new installation, since they had been stored in my home folder (../.config/libreoffice/4/user/...). Other components, in particular the templates that I had defined, are not preserved, since they are in usr/lib/libreoffice/share/template/common, while the new installation is in /opt/libreoffice6.1. This is both inconsistent programming and a nuisance to the user. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Leave your old LO version untouched. 2. Install the current version. 3. Start LO Writer. 4. Open the templates folder. Actual Results: It only contains those templates shipped with LO. Expected Results: It should contain the templates defined by the user in his previous version. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Suggestion: Either store all user-defined components in his home directory so they survive program updates; or else, when installing a new version, see to it that user-defined components are copied to their directories.
Update on the report: I have just installed the Windows version of LO 6.1.4.2. Here the installer gets it right, since all the user settings are stored in subfolders of a folder 'user' at some point down the ramified structure headed by the folder 'Users'.
@Dieter: I am not sure what you mean by 'Resolved'. Unless I am mistaken, you have a Windows system. The bug is on Linux.
