How to install libreoffice-voikko on Ubuntu/Debian

I'm using Ubuntu

Change the user

Change the user to root

su

Enter the root password. This is necessary because in some steps sudo does not work properly.

Install Requirements

Type in the following command:

apt-get install libreoffice python3.x git make sed findutils zip unzip pkg-config gettext \
libxml++2.6-dev libarchive-dev zlib1g-dev file-roller
cd ~

Here any version of Python 3 can be used.
