To do so, you can use sudo apt-get purge libreoffice* (you may have also to sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get autoclean) on *ubuntu and sudo yum remove libreoffice* on fedora. To my knowledge, two distributions that have such problems are *ubuntu and fedora: on those distros you need first to uninstall LibO to install AOO. Notice that these problems are completely artificial and came from some decisions made during packaging: on other distros like openSUSE, this does not happen. But for some Linux distributions it is not that easy: when they switched from (the heavily modified version of) OOo to the (also modified version of) LibO they packaged their versions of LibO in a way that cause conflicts with OOo or AOO. NOTE: In general, AOO can be installed side by side with LibreOffice (both suites use different directories). For additional information about the integration of OpenOffice in the repositories of your distribution, see: Linux Apache OpenOffice
