            Bug ID: 113783
           Summary: Change user profile folder for 6.0
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha1+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

With users who are upgrading from earlier versions of LO, they may not see
various improvements in the UI or behaviour as these settings are stored in the
user profile, like

* Toolbar reorganization and positioning (LO 4.4)
* Menu reorganization (LO 5.1)
* Sidebar content panel correct state (LO 5.1)
* Sidebar remembering which deck was opened on closing (LO 6.0) (bug 67770)

So the suggestion is to change the user profile folder from
~/.config/libreoffice/4/ to ~/.config/libreoffice/6/, so users get a clean
slate and arent plagued by user profile issues since we changed from /3/ to /4/
in 2013.
