Because that file was not created by the installer, it was created at
run time by the app.  Synaptic can only remove files created at
install time.  Perhaps you would a complete remove to also remove all
the other files created by libreoffice, such as your documents
themselves.

I not that you are not even running Ubuntu.  Why are you not asking
this on a Mint list?
