LibreOffice is an office suite. It is a fork of OpenOffice, and a replacement of Novell's Go-OO, managed by the Document Foundation. See www.libreoffice.org


Get LibreOffice

Download LibreOffice from www.libreoffice.org/download/

You need the program itself:

  • LibO_3.x.x_Win_x86_install_multi.exe

or

  • LibO_3.x.x_Win_x86_install_all_lang.exe (for uncommon languages)

Additionaly you may want to install the help package for your language, for example:

  • LibO_3.x.x_Win_x86_helppack_en-US.exe 8.6

Dependencies

The Java Runtime Environment is a software prerequiste for LibreOffice, thus is a <depends> of the package.

Dual Installation with OpenOffice

LibreOffice does not replace an already installed OpenOffice (though LibreOffice 3.3 beta did), so you may like to remove OpenOffice before installing LibreOffice.

Common Installer Options

  • ALLUSERS (default=1) - perform a per-user installation or per-machine installation depending on the access privileges of the user
  • CREATEDESKTOPLINK (default=1) - create desktop shortcut icon
  • INSTALLLOCATION - specify installation directory
  • RebootYesNo (default=Yes) – reboot after the installation
  • ISCHECKFORPRODUCTUPDATES (default=1) - check for updates – this property is deprecated
  • REGISTER_ALL_MSO_TYPES (default=0) - use LibreOffice as the default application for Microsoft Office file formats
  • REGISTER_NO_MSO_TYPES (default=0) – don't use LibreOffice as default application for any Microsoft Office file formats
  • REGISTER_DOC (default=0) - use LibreOffice as the default application for Microsoft Word file format .doc (You can use similar for .xls, .ppt etc.)
  • SELECT_WORD - use LibreOffice as the default application for Microsoft Word file formats (You can use similar for EXCEL and POWERPOINT)
  • REMOVE - remove specified components(comma as separator and no space)
  • IS1033 (default=1) – all languages are installed as default so you must specify each language that you don't want to install.

LibreOffice has a Deployment and Migration wiki page with MSI properties.

OpenOffice has a wiki page with MSI properties, most of which apply to LibreOffice.

Uninstall Strings

Get the uninstall string for your particular language from 'productcode' in setup.ini.

LibreOffice 3.5.x

I am using a custom cmd script to launch the installer in custom way. This also allows me to customize MSI installer options. Currently I use this to create a minified LibreOffice installer which excludes language packs I don't need. This heavily speeds up deployment on my machines. Installing full LibreOffice 3.5 on my test machine took around 15-20 minutes while minified version with reduced language set finished in 2 minutes.

Here's what my WPKG package looks like. Note that it's a very basic package working with WPKG 1.2 and newer. 

<package id='LibreOffice' name='LibreOffice' revision='350' priority='50' reboot='false' >
  <check type='uninstall' condition='exists' path='LibreOffice 3.5' />
  <install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\LibreOffice v.3.5.0\unattended.cmd" > NUL' />
  <remove cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\LibreOffice v.3.5.0\unattended-uninstall.cmd" > NUL' />
  <upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\LibreOffice v.3.5.0\unattended.cmd" > NUL' />
</package>

As you can see I am just calling unattended.cmd / unattended-uninstall.cmd. The following chapters list these files. The application folder should therefore contain the following files:

  • install.cmd
  • LibO_3.5.0_Win_x86_install_multi.msi
  • unattended.cmd
  • unattended-uninstall.cmd

unattended.cmd

This script is used to install LibreOffice with custom options (see CUSTOM_OPTIONS variable). I am using 3 'for' loops in order to exclude languages I do not need. The first loop removes dictionaries which are excluded. The second loop removes unneeded help packs and the third one removes unneeded language packs (user interface localizations). Removing help and language packs can reduce installation time dramatically.

If you need to know the full list of dictionaries, helppack and langpack language codes, then open the installer MSI file with an MSI editor like Orca and head towards the 'Components' table. Herein you will find all gm_r_ex_Dicctionary_*, gm_Helppack_r_* and gm_Langpack_r_* components with descriptions.

In addition this script checks for the existence of a Microsoft Office installation. If an Office installation folder is found, then gm_p_Wrt_MSO_Reg,gm_p_Calc_MSO_Reg,gm_p_Impress_MSO_Reg is appended to the remove list so LibreOffice will not associate Office file extensions to LibreOffice.

LibreOffice 3.4.x

Unpack the LibreOffice installer (.exe) and help file installer (.exe) with an archive tool (for example 7-zip, or using the installer itself).

Copy the unpacked files to your server.

If required, for example to change installer options or to remove unnecessary languages, modify the MSI file or create a transform (.mst) file using an MSI editor such as Microsoft ORCA or InstEd. The main interesting sections to configure in the MSI are 'Property' and 'Feature'.

The exact version number is gleaned from setup.ini.

For the <remove> tags, these packages use the English (GB) uninstall string. Either use the uninstall string for your particular language, gleaned from 'productcode' in setup.ini, or leave the .msi file for the particular version on your server and use that (not as straight forward).

There appears to be a large penalty for not removing unwanted languages. Start up time, even with quick-starter enabled is very long. Removing languages improves this tremendously.

LibreOffice 3.3.x

This is based on the OpenOffice 3.2.1 package script.

Unpack the LibreOffice installer (.exe) and help file installer (.exe) with an archive tool (for example 7-zip, or using the installer itself).

Copy the unpacked files to your server.

If required, for example to change installer options or to remove unnecessary languages, modify the MSI file or create a transform (.mst) file using an MSI editor such as Microsoft ORCA or InstEd. The main interesting sections to configure in the MSI are 'Property' and 'Feature'.

Note: For the <remove> tag I have used the .msi file itself to get rid of the fact that the uninstall strings in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall are language dependent. But this requires you to keep the .msi file on the server for removing software. You may prefer to use remove strings such as: 

<!-- language dependent msiexec remove strings (here the czech ones) -->
<remove cmd='msiexec /qn /X{CEE2613D-3B53-4447-BA2D-E88C08272581}' />
<remove cmd='msiexec /qn /X{04A88043-281E-4E32-B878-343B51F56F2E}' />

You will have to use the string relevant to your language. These strings are held in setup.ini, under 'productcode'.
