Here are Libreoffice
5.3.0 + locale + help packages as well as the greek spell and dictionary for modern and ancient greek.
and Libreoffice
5.2.5 version
Both are working fine. Libreoffice 5.2.5 is the latest mature "still" version of LibreOffice, recommended for enterprises. Libreoffice 5.3.0 is the latest "fresh" version of LibreOffice, recommended for technology enthusiasts.

thanx a lot. works great. but every time I upgrade the system (salix 14.1 mate) it tries to downgrade to the previous version. what about upgrading packages in repository?
cheers,

(Unauthorized opinion fom a newcomer): if packages were upgraded in the 14.1 or 14.2 repository (but possibly for a major bug fix or a security fix), Salix 14.1 or 14.2 would not be stable releases.
But you can deal with this situation in two ways:
- Edit the EXCLUDE list in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc
- Put the Libreoffice* packages in a local repository and refer to it in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc like this:
Code: Select all
SOURCE=file://<path to your local repository>:CUSTOM
Personally I would favor the second way.

Is it a quite good idea to rebuild 5.3.0 with patch from
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/sho ... ?id=105409
to prevent crashes on context menu popups...

These are repackaged builds from debian packages. They are stable. I had no problem with this bug you mention above. I never had a crash.

2 DidierSpaier
first thank you for your hint. second I tried both solutions but only first works. maybe I've made mistake putting the following line to /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc
Code: Select all
SOURCE=file:///media/depot/Downloads/libreoffice-5.3.0-i686-1dj.txz/:CUSTOM
(the file libreoffice-5.3.0-i686-1dj.txz was downloaded as stated in first post and used to upgrade LO). what is wrong?
cheers,

Well, two things:
1) The source should be the path to the repository, not the package
2) slapt-get needs the files PACKAGES.TXT and CHECKSUMS.md5 files in this local repository, see:
https://software.jaos.org/git/slapt-get ... l#slgFAQ17
EDIT. You just need to save the script from the FAQ as /media/depot/meta. sh then type:
Code: Select all
cd /media/depot
sh meta.sh PACKAGESTXT
sh meta.sh MD5
In /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc write this line:
Code: Select all
SOURCE=file:///media/depot/:CUSTOM
Then run spi -u or slapt-get u.

Are there any constraints on the subdirectory structure of your local repository? And what about dependency information?
