Hello,
I removed libreoffice 7 with apt remove and reinstalled libreoffice 7.1 with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa; sudo apt install libreoffice. It look like I have one version running:
$ libreoffice --version
LibreOffice 7.1.2.2 10(Build:2)
But then, two versions open up depending on the document I am using:
and
To note different icon sets. How can I keep the latest?
Thanks
Check the title of the application windows. One shows “LibreOffice Writer” while the other shows “LibreOffice 7.1 Writer”. I’m pretty sure you have in fact 2 versions installed. Please let us know
ls -l /opt/ | grep -i libreoffice
Help ->About LibreOffice from both application windows.dpkg --list | awk '/ii/&&/libreoffice/||/libobasis/{print $2,$3}'
One version is 7.1.3.2, the other is 7.1.2.2. The output is:
$ ls -l /opt/ | grep -i libreoffice
$ dpkg --list | awk '/ii/&&/libreoffice/||/libobasis/{print $2,$3}'

Ok - if there is nothing in /opt (which would be the default location for TDF packages) and dpkg output only shows 7.1.2.2, I need to assume you installed a snap, AppImage or flatpak package in addition - but you did not show what I have requested (Information from Help ->About LibreOffice) hence I cannot decide.
The About is shown here: https://u.cubeupload.com/gigux/LO.png the versions are 7.1.3.2 and 7.1.2.2. Probably one comes from snap. Can I remove it?
Hello,
[1] Check output snap list for LibreOffice - most likely you see something like this:
user@system:~$ snap list
Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes
core18 20210309 1997 latest/stable canonical✓ base

[2] Run sudo snap remove libreoffice to remove the snap release.
[3] Keep in mind that generally it is a bad idea to mix repositories for a specific software.
Hope that helps.
