Installing Libre Office on SLES

[boblmartens]

I am running Moodle on a SLE 12 SP2 server here at work and want to install unoconv so that I can enable some of the new advanced grading stuff for our instructors. However, I am having a very difficult time installing LibreOffice so that the conversion can happen. I have attempted to install LibreOffice from OBS, but to no avail (missing dependencies … track those down … more dependencies).

So, I am wondering what the best way to accomplish this is besides pulling this server out and moving to openSUSE Leap 42.2 instead. Thanks!

Hi
You need to purchase the Workstation Extension to get all the Desktop
stuff…
