Looked fresh to me.Ĭan we please have the output of: ~> fpaste -sysinfo -printonly Pranav is the existing use I use every day.Īnd yes, I used GUI, via GDM to log out from “Pranav” and log in to “Bond”.

didn’t exist before? And when you say logout and back in, you mean using the GUI, via GDM? In fact you can easily revert LO to default config for your user if you rename ~/.config/libreoffice to ~/.config/libreoffice.bak then restart libreoffice and it will be the same as if you had never previously started it and you will be working with the default configs.Ĭan I just confirm that bond is a brand new user and that /home/bond etc. Work from the beginning with a little trouble shooting instead of using the sledge hammer approach. that you have done and your user will still be stuck with the changes already in effect. Starting with a new user allows starting at default configs and you can then see the differences your own user has made to the config.Ī reinstall will not wipe out any configs of themes, etc. I want to remove every trace of LibreOffice and want to reinstall it to check.īefore you do that I would recommend you follow earlier suggestions to create the new user and test appearance there.Įach user has their own config for appearance of gnome and apps under their home directory. Is there a command to clean uninstall libreoffice like in Ubuntu i.e sudo apt remove -purge libreoffice. (Again, creating a new user means all of this will be clear and back to default, so please try that first?) Check in libreoffice under Tools > Options > Paths. User specific configuration should be at ~/.config/libreoffice. So the last command shouldn’t find anything libreoffice related: $ rpm -qal -configfiles libreoffice\* It doesn’t look like libreoffice includes any configuration files that are user modifiable by default, though. To reinstall libreoffice, just do: sudo dnf reinstall libreoffice\*Īnd then to check if any system configuration files were modified, use: sudo rpmconf -a To answer your question: what does apt remove -purge do? Does it also remove configurations in your user folder ( ~)? dnf and rpm do not do that-it’s strictly against policy to touch a users’s home directory at all. If does not happen in the new user, there’s no point of reinstalling libreoffice, since that’s not where the issue is. Have you created a new user to check yet? That’s the simplest and quickest way to figure out if this is a system wide issue or one limited to your user configuration.

The office suite is available for not only Windows, but also macOS and Linux, making it ideal for individuals and businesses working across different platforms.Hrm, why though-what indicates that there’s an issue with your system installation of libreoffice? Have you modified any system files manually? In addition to background changes, there are new templates and features to play with. There are so many changes in LibreOffice 7.2 that it is an increasingly viable Microsoft Office alternative for anyone on a budget. It is now possible to have multi-column text boxes in presentations, and the rendering of large images has been sped up.īut this is just scratching the surface. Across the suite, there have been improvements in all of LibreOffice 7.2 constituent apps.įor both Impress and Draw, there are new templates to choose from, but there are also some that have been removed. Some of the built in functions (CELL(), RAWSUBTRACT() and ROUND ()) have been tweaked, and there have been various speed optimizations implemented. In the Calc spreadsheet tool, there is a redesigned Special Paste dialog, and numerous improvements to the autofill function. When mail-merging, a helpful error is displayed if there is a link to a non-existent data source, and there have been speed improvements to font rendering. In Writer, the suite's word processor, it is now possible to include clickable links in tables of contents and indices, and there have been improvements to the importing and exporting of PDFs.
