Libreoffice-dev

Hi

can someone tell me what is this libreoffice-dev package doing in the missing list in synaptic on linux Mint ?

Thank you.

It installs a local copy of the libreoffice-api

-dev is usually a hint on packages for developers.

My guess it: it is resting.

This package contains the (architecture-dependent) files needed to build
plugins/add-ons for LibreOffice (build tools, libraries, arch-dependent
includes, …).

How do I get rid of it ?

Synaptic only offers to INSTALL it.

Thanks.

Simply do not install it. Synaptic is a catalogue of debian packages that can be installed and packanges that have been installed already.

I found a way !!!
I typed
sudo apt full-upgrade
and for each **** listed I typed

sudo apt install ****

Result:
There are no more listed in synaptic.
