Sorry ,Jerry,
I assume accidentally pushed the wrong button as I normally never put a 
name in the cc-list.
I have installed 3.3.2 but ut is the ubuntu update that want to remove 
OO when it want to update.
What happens is the following:
Update comes with the announcement of new updates and shows the updates
and refuses to load the LO updates but updates the non-LO ones.
It then asks to do a partial UPGRADE and then wants to remove all OO 
packages and libre-office-debian-menus, nautilus-cd-burner and 
python-uno and then it will upgrade uno-libre3 and ure.
Why does it want to remove something which, as far as I know, doesn't 
interfere with the packages to update.
Of course I will reinstall LO in the /opt directory but I don't see why 
this will pacify update.
MR Zenwiz, see above.
