I have installed unoconv in my ubuntu with LibreOffice. But I need to know what are the parts of LibreOffice I really need to install. Because I do not want to install LibreOffice whole.

This Unoconv, will work within a server. converting files from RTF to HTML and HTML to RTF and some files in DOC format

What packages will I need to install from LibreOffice?

  • Unoconv has python, and python-uno (with libreoffice-core) as a dependency. See my updated answer: askubuntu.com/questions/24096/…

Unoconv will depend on the core library from libreoffice for conversion of different documents but we do not have to install all of the libreoffice package.

By running apt-cache depends unoconv we can see the following dependencies:

unoconv
  Depends: python
  Depends: python-uno

We will also need python-uno with the following dependencies:

python-uno
  Depends: libreoffice-core
  Depends: python2.7
  Depends: python
  Depends: libc6
  Depends: libgcc1
  Depends: libpython2.7
  Depends: libstdc++6
  Depends: uno-libs3
  Depends: ure

Thus in addition to Python and C-libraries the following additional packages from the libreoffice suite (installed size on amd64 in brackets) are needed:

  • libreoffice-core (117,412.0 kB)
  • uno-libs3 (1,796.0 kB)
  • ure (6,775.0 kB)

Hence in terms of size roughly half of the libreoffice package will be installed with unovonv.
