was display in my LibreOffice Version 6 .. (is obviously a remain from Version
5 ...
I really think that the solution to this issue is not to let the user find the
option "clean up your profile", but that LibreOffice should actively delete all
old folders /files that could possibly affect the intended behaviour.
So, in my opinion, everything should be deleted before doing the new install,
just the user settings (path for „Arbeitsverzeichnis“, „Sicherungskopien“, and
„Druckformatvorlagen“ that were added by the user should be copied.
I don't know if this goes against established rules of programming (in this
case I can't really see any risk of deleting data valuable to the user)
A viable workaroud solution might be "nudge" the user to do a user profile
cleanup as a standard routine when installing a new version (telling him/her he
has not to fear any data loss, but can avoid some (minor) issues - I would
consider this solution not opimal or second best)</pre>
