Hi folks,
after some more grepping, also adapted the readmes to only reference
documentfoundation/libreoffice links. File is attached, would be
cool if you could review it for correctness, language - and whether
the links as such make sense.
Thanks,
-- Thorsten

<p id="Linuxi3a" xml:lang="en-US">There is a wide variety of Linux distributions, and even within the same distribution there may be different installation options (KDE vs Gnome, etc.). Some distributions ship with their own ?native? version of ${PRODUCTNAME}, which may have different features from this Community ${PRODUCTNAME}. Sometimes you can install the Community ${PRODUCTNAME} alongside the ?native? version. However, it?s usually safer to remove the ?native? version before installing this Community version.

<p id="BDB4a" xml:lang="en-US">If you downgrade to an earlier version of ${PRODUCTNAME}, you must remove the user data directory <tt>{user data}/uno_packages</tt>, for example <tt>~/.libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages</tt>, and reinstall all extensions.</p>
