1. Adding the repository:
sudo echo “debhttp://download.tuxfamily.org/gericom/libreoffice  /#geri...@hummer” | tee -a 
/etc/apt/sources.list

2. Adding the signing key:
wget debhttp://download.tuxfamily.org/gericom/gericom.asc  -q -O- | sudo apt-key add -


In TDF archive is the message thread of observations about the deb 
repository and setting it up.
See the thread:

"[TDF discuss] LO deb repo" for more details.

AG,

I used the line:

prompt>  sudo apt-get install libreoffice3* lobasis3.3* libreoffice-debian-menus


to install LibO from the Nikola's LibO deb repository. When it came time 
to install beta2, I uninstalled beta1 then used the line above to 
install beta2. Although apt did pick up the fact that the packages were 
updated and installed them, I discovered after the fact that beta1 had 
to be uninstalled first.

Scott Furry
