Apache OpenOffice required for Zotero 5.0?
Hi, I was trying to upgrade to Zotero 5.0 in Firefox, but I kept getting an error when I attempted to install- so I went for Manual installation and received this error message: Exstention requires at least Apache OpenOffice 4.1. I'm on a PC and have MS Office suite, so why do I need Apache OpenOffice? In previous versions of Zotero I didn't.
Plus to try to figure this out, I found this statement elsewhere: Zotero requires LibreOffice 5.2 or later. If you are using an older version, upgrade to the current version of LibreOffice. See System Requirements. Apache OpenOffice and NeoOffice are based on older versions of LibreOffice and are not supported by Zotero.
Do I need Apache or something else?

dstillmanI'm not sure where you're seeing the Apache OpenOffice message, but you need LibreOffice, not OpenOffice.

dstillman@KateGraves: Well, sorry, to clarify, what exactly are you trying to do here? If you're just using Word, you don't need LibreOffice at all. When exactly are you seeing that message?
