WARNING: The following suspicious files and directories were found: /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/.registry [From Debian package: libreoffice-common]
Then don't run it. Or use it with a grain of salt. That one is the "source" of which the real main.xcd in registry is created for by ucf. See libreoffice-commons maintainer scripts: # Automatically added by dh_ucf/13.24.2 if [ "$1" = "configure" ] || [ "$1" = "abort-upgrade" ]; then ucf --three-way "/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/.registry/main.xcd" "/etc/libreoffice/registry/main.xcd" ucfr --force libreoffice-common "/etc/libreoffice/registry/main.xcd" fi
i.e. dot-files are suspicious.
It's hidden because it's supposed to be hidden because it's not supposed to be touched by users. (and registry/ is taken anyway.) I could have choosen registry-original but that would be too visible, IMHO. Regards, Rene
