As already mentioned, not always has the latest LO update (still or fresh) in
default packages included in the distribution. This is a problem in general and
is not always possible to install the latest version from the web due to
dependency problems. I think in this case, a portable version using AppImage is
a good solution.

It is not the real problem

We return to the problem of usability/UX and availability in only two types of
