Description Herbert Post 2014-07-31 08:31:26 UTC
Problem description: 
Usually after installing a new release of LibreOffice the old
release is automatically removed.
This does not happen with 4.3.
After installing (dpkg -i *) the 4.2 release is still available
and has to be manually removed.

OS: Ubuntu 14.04x64 fully updated.

              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.3.0.3 rc
Last worked in: 4.2.6.2 rc

The automatic removal of old versions happens only with packages from the Ubuntu archive. TDF packages are configured to allow people to install and use multiple LO (and even AOO) versions. Not gonna change it

Dear Adolfo,

This is new.
Until the last release the old release were removed.
So this is new and not something people would want.

I’ve never used the ubuntu version of LibreOffice
(it’s the first thing I remove after installing ubuntu and then I manually
install and update LibreOffice. It always removes the old version installed by me.)

Kind regards,
Herbert

Only for minor releases, for example 4.2.4 -> 4.2.5. New major releases *never* removed the old one, for example 4.2.x didn't remove 4.1.x.
