installing libreoffice via terminal
 
Hello,

I want to install libreoffice via terminal, but I got the error message below
( libreoffice cannot be found )
With ubuntu there are no probs. Maybe I did something wrong. Anybody here to help me with that?

Code:
root@satellite2410:~# sudo apt-get install libreoffice libreoffice-l10n-de libreoffice-help-de
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig

Usually you need to refresh the repository's listings.

Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libreoffice libreoffice-l10n-de libreoffice-help-de
If that is not working then look at what is or isn't in the repostiory and the repository itself:

Code:
apt-cache policy libreoffice
apt-cache policy
Also, if you are already logged in as root, it is not necessary to use sudo to become root again.


Edit: if the above does not work, then also try this before installing:

Code:
sudo apt update
It may ask a question or two about the repositories.

You should be able to install it using,

Code:
sudo apt-get install libreoffice*
(after running update).

I installed the office package with the package installer, that worked, and after that the German language package with the terminal.
