Hi, I'm aware that recently there has been some changes in libreoffice package. The problem is that yesterday I updated my system and surprisingly only libreoffice-common was updated. By that I mean that I mean that not base, writer, impress... were available after the update, they dissapered. Moreover, if I make "pacman -S libreoffice" only  "libreoffice-common" is targeted and there is no traces of libreoffice-calc,  libreoffice-base,  libreoffice-draw.... The thing is that there seems to be a container called libreoffice which it is suppose to contain all this basic packages but in my case only installs "libreoffice-common". What I'm doing wrong? I hope it is not expected that we install one by one the components we want. Thanks in advance, Hector

My only (small) gripe is that libreoffice-gnome maybe should be called libreoffice-gtk.

As a user of xfce I was slightly puzzled but the naming saying gnome as it sort of implies that it is specific to gnome, however the description clarifies that it applies to any gtk dependent DE. Maybe the naming should be general and the description should state gnome,xfce and anything else gtk dependent that is officially supported by arch.

and libreoffice-kde4 should be libreoffice-qt.

I'm not sure about this, it pulls in at least phonon, which is kde specific.
