LibreOffice 6.0 has been released. How can I install LibreOffice 6 in Ubuntu? What is the official PPA?

Use their installation method from source.

The official PPAs at the moment are at 5.4.4 since 6.0 is still in "testing". The people from Libreoffice will release a PPA when "testing" is finished.

PPA with the "latest" release can be found here and in:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-prereleases
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libreoffice

But I do not see 6 in there yet. 5.4.4 is the highest.

    As of 29 Jan 2018, the `libreoffice-prereleases` PPA includes `1:6.0.0~rc3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo2`. :) The release of 6.0 was announced on the [Document Foundation blog](https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2018/01/31/libreoffice-6/) today. – Dɑvïd Jan 31 '18 at 11:36
  • It doesn't work on Ubuntu 12 – Nathan B May 28 '19 at 06:23
  • Ofcourse not. Ubuntu 12 is end of life. – Rinzwind May 28 '19 at 06:29
