Good point. :-)

However, if I run find on the LO "program" directory, filter all the
files through 'file' and grep out everything with "64" in it, all that
remains is ASCII, shell scripts, data files and a few PE32 (and PE32+)
python executables that happen to be Windows .exe files that don't run
on Linux.

I have not seen any of the problems mentioned in this thread, but I
have not upgraded to 4.1 yet (waiting for 4.1.1).

YMMV.

Fine, but that only explains the executable as a 64bit under Linux Standard
Base (LSB part in the given reference for those wishing to understand,
meaning a standard function through all 'nixes). It's still not the entire
LO code base that is 64bit.

Not really:

/opt/libreoffice4.0/program/soffice.bin: ELF 64-bit LSB executable,
x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for
GNU/Linux 2.6.9, not stripped

HTH.

This is a structure from the devs in a file naming convention, indicating
its a 32bit app (x86_), that can be installed on a 64bit operating system
(_64), not necessarily a 64bit app. And in the case of LO, it's
definitely
not yet a 64bit app. They still have to code 32bit apps to be functional
on
64bit O/S's, unlike a naitve 32bit app for a 32bit O/S.

Hope this explains it better.

Umm!!! factually no, LO is still 32bit on Linux


Then why is there an x86_64 version, when the 32 bit version should also
work well?
