I'm unable to install debian (jessie) without libreoffice. Many website suggest many ways, but this libre office is like Internet Explorer in windows - it seems that you cant install system without it.

I've read bunch of articles how to remove libreoffice from debian (eg. https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2013/01/msg01224.html - still removal), but I would like to install debian without LibreOffice in the first place. Can it be done?

Use the netinst image of Debian, that includes only the basic operating system without any desktop related packages.

  • Thanks; is it possible to install debian (full release eg with apache) without libreoffice or it is the only way? i'm not linux expert - what would be your approach to install debian + gui (eg lxde) + apache? would that still be netinstall + manual installation of each component? – integratorIT Jul 04 '16 at 11:28

    Just use `apt-get install pkgname` to install apache2 and other needed packages after you have installed the basic system. You can search for particular packages with `apt-cache search name` command. – Tero Kilkanen Jul 05 '16 at 18:22
