             Bug #: 46921
           Summary: Libre Office windows installer fails if no previous
                    version of LibreOffice 3.3 is installed
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.0 Release
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: medium
         Component: Installation
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

screen dump of install dialog after failure.

Libre Office installer LibO_3.5.0_Win_x86_install_multi.msi appears to install
normally until it gets to the point of "Removing Applications". It then pops up
a dialog asking the user to locate the "LibreOffice33.msi". (see attached)
There is no LibreOffice33.msi file on the computer so installation fails. 

There was once an OpenOffice3.3 and there MAY have been a LibreOffice3.3 and
they were probably just deleted and not uninstalled (quite common on Windows as
deleting the installation files after an install often deletes the .msi) 

This looks like the same sort of issue as bug 46690 but its version 3.5 instead
of 3.4.
