I recently switched from Mageia 2 to 4 doing a clean install from the LiveCD and then copying my /home directory. I was in the process of reinstalling useful software when I realized LibreOffice wasn't there. I've tried adding new mirrors and changing search parameters but no matter what, only two show up in Rpmdrake (a presentation shrinker and a Finnish spellchecker). I checked the repositories manually in my browser and the packages are present. They are also visible in Konsole when using urpmf. I know I could install it that way or even from
http://mageia.madb.org/. I'm just wondering why and if it will have any effect on future updates or if there are other packages I'm missing out even if, as far as I can tell, every other software needed was there.
