151 Untaring the libreoffice-core-&libreoffice-version;.4 tarball as
152 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> has the curious effect of
153 changing the ownership of the <emphasis>parent</emphasis> directory
154 to a user with numerical id 11012 and with the permissions set to allow
155 read, write and execute for that user only! If you untared as
156 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> in your home folder you
157 could end up unable to log in again :/ If you untared it in
158 <filename class="directory">/usr</filename> you would find your user
159 account unable to access any file in
160 <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>.

164 You can avoid this unpleasantness by
165 <emphasis>not</emphasis> untaring it as

167 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> pass the option
168 <option>--no-overwrite-dir</option> to tar. This is the default when you
169 untar as a user but has to be passed as an option when untaring as
