Description Michael Fong 2020-09-01 17:13:43 UTC
In the LibreOffice 7.0 download archive, LibreOffice_7.0.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm.tar.gz, the file ./LibreOffice_7.0.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm/readmes/README_en-US

at Line 78:
For Fedora-based systems: su -c 'yum install *.rpm'

propose using dnf, as this is the mainstream install tool for Fedora, It was introduced in Fedora 18.

replace Line 78 with:
For Fedora-based systems: sudo dnf install *.rpm'


This was tested on Fedora 32 from LibreOffice_7.0.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm.tar.gz downloaded 09/01/2020. The installation was SUCCESSFUL. LibreOffice 7.0.0.3 came up fine.

Reverted in 7.0 branch because the string freeze has already been done.
