I'm new to rpi ... Trying to download Office Libre from PI store (after first registering) and all I get is a screen saying "you are being redirected to PayPal ... if you are not redirected in 5 seconds please click the button below"
But there is no button to click ... Just empty space !
Can anybody help ?
Thanks ... Ianely

Download LibreOffice the normal way. On the command line:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libreoffice
or there is a GUI software installer now.

Thanks ... I went to the link and ran the update ... But then when I tried to install PI-package (sudo apt-get install PI-package) , it came back with a message saying it was unable to locate PI-package
Does this make any sense to you ?
I'll have a go at installing libreoffice using the apt-get method
Thanks
Ianely

Although that blog post does say ...
The Pi Store is also going to continue to run, so if you’re a Pi developer don’t fret!

Case sensitive PI is not same as pi
https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/latest-raspbian-update
Also to bring other software up to date:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

That may have been true for the optimist writing that blog back in Feb 2015, it never happened. The Pi Store has been dead for a year.
