My point being that INSTEAD of including a complete LO at a certain specific version ("current" only at the moment the ISO for Salix 14.0 Xfce gold is built), a script to download and install the "latest stable" (at whichever moment the user installs Salix; whether it is next month or 6 months from now) is, IMHO a better choice. Such "script" would need a nice desktop icon right there after the installation of the OS for newbies to run after the OS has been installed (if so they want), and the "latest stable" LO (whichever version at that moment) would be downloaded and installed, and also added to Gslapt for easy future updates. Saves MB, installing an “older” version (say, 9 months from now), unnecessary downloads and repeated updates...gapan wrote:That script is called an SLKBUILD file and it's right into your /usr/src/libreoffice-$pkgver dir.Adys wrote:(IMHO, a script to download the "latest stable" and install it should be better than adding a specific version in the ISO image, but since I don't have the knowledge to actually write such script...)
I'm most probably dreaming .
The default download for LO is the "higher" version number released, even when it is not the most "stable" one.And I don't see version 3.5.7 listed as the preferred version in their website. I only see that 3.6.2 is being downloaded by default when you press the download button.
From http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Main_Page for the "higher" version number released (3.6.2 ATM):
Our latest, feature rich version. Alternatively version 3.5.7 is the stable version
