In the past I have downloaded the updates, and used rpm -Uvh with the core, and then down the same with the help file. This time got a missing dependancy message. Was able to just copy the help rpm into the directory, and then the rpm -Uvh *.rpm went thru with no issue? This hasn't been an issue with previous upgrades. Wondering why the Help just isn't included with the core to begin with?
Michael: what distribution do you use + what version of it? What version of LO are you trying to install? Where did you retrieve the rpm (from LO website) or from your distribution repository? What was the precise error message?
This is on an older machine that has Fedora 14. The libre office is the 4.2.1.1 that was just downloaded from the libre website. Downloaded and extracted to the RPM file as I have done in the past and extracted it. rpm -Uvh *.rpm result in a error about a dependency of the help file, and nothing would update. I then extracted the help file that I had already downloaded, and just copied the one RPM from it to the directory with all the other rpm files. Then ram rpm -Uvh *.rpm and it ran with no issue. Usually, would do the updates of the main files with no issues, and then do the update of the help files afterwards with no issue. Was just running yum update on Fedora 20 64 bit machines, and it sees that there is the new 4.2.1.1 in the repo, but it is failing due to a requirement of libcmis-0.4, but there is only libcmis-0.3.1-8 and nothing in the testing repo, so not sure why it is required? But that is another issue.
Michael: thank you for your feedback. Since I don't have more questions, I put it back to UNCONFIRMED.
