            Bug ID: 139233
           Summary: macOS : no (not-ugly) way to set global config
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.3.1 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: daitheflu at free.fr

Description:
I'm trying to deploy some settings (like "do not check updates online") for the
users of a company.

The only way I got it working is by putting some config excerpt in
/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Resources/registry directory which is
really ugly (it will be overridden every time LO is updated).

I would expect LO to look in /Library/Application Support/LibreOffice/registry,
for example.

Notice that putting the very same file in the user profile doesn't work either.

Actual Results:
LO only consider overriding config files if they are stored in LibreOffice.app.
(at least for online update).

Expected Results:
Respect (mac)OS paths and conventions.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Using LO 7.0.3.1 under macOS 11.1.
