Is it possible to install LibreOffice 5?

[drewpotter]

Hello there!

 

I am a brand new user to Funtoo. I used to use Gentoo in the past, then for a few years I used Ubuntu. However I got sick of strange behaviour by Ubuntu so I just installed Funtoo!

 

And it is great!

 

I was just wondering if it is possible to install LibreOffice 5.0 somehow, I see that the latest version in portage is: 4.4.3.2

 

I wondered if using layman might help?

Thanks,

Andrew

you can install from the source code, but need install all dependence before :

libreoffice-5 looks unstable. It crashing for me, i believe it's better to wait some time before most problems settle down.
