Unable to update to LibreOffice RC3 through PPA

[lbarnes]

Hey guys, I had LibreOffice RC2 installed through the libreoffice ppa on my 10.10 64 Ubuntu system and was waiting for the ppa to update before installing RC3. Well, today RC3 was released and I am unable to update through Update Manager or Terminal:

I was wondering if anyone was waiting like I was and was able to update through the ppa today. I'm thinking that the likely reason is that RC2 should be completely removed for RC3 to be installed. If that's the case what is the ideal way to remove RC2 properly? Thanks for any suggestions.

sudo ppa-purge libreoffice

allowed me to remove RC2 and I was able to install RC3 without problems through the ppa.

My problem was my settings for my repositories. I did not have the pre-released updates checked. I checked it then unchecked it. LibreOffice still showed up in update manager and it updated CR-2 to CR-3. I had originally installed through Ubuntu Tweaks, Thanks for letting me know it had been released.

Yeah, I have every box checked, I definitely had some kinda conflict going on as I haven't seen any similar issues yet. Glad you got yours up to date, peace.
