• Repo for libreoffice-pyuno

    From Grimble@2:250/1 to All on Wed Jan 25 12:40:31 2023
    I am considering installing the LibreOffice Python extension in order
    to write a Python macro for a spreadsheet.
    I normally use DNF to install software, but DNF couldn't find libreoffice-pyuno
    URPMI could find libreoffice-pyuno but offered to install a bunch of libreoffice packages which are already installed (in /opt)
    Which repository should be activated for DNF to find it?
    Thanks,

    I listed the urpmi media which included the "nonfree" repos, so I added
    them to dnf but that didn't work. Is this the correct url? http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/8/x86_64/media/nonfree/release

    I use urpm not dnf for my package manager. Here is the media list from princeton.edu I
    have enabled for Cauldron Release 9

    Removed http://mirror.math.princeton.edu/ from output for easier reading

    Thanks. Based on your urls, I searched further and found the repos were
    there but not enabled. I also found I had excluded libreoffice packages
    from the standard Mageia updates (I use the latest versions from the LibreOffice site).
    So, all sorted. Thanks again.
