To get the list of libreoffice installed packages, open a terminal and type:

dpkg -l | grep -i libreoffice | cut -c 4-40

To remove libreoffice using terminal type:

sudo apt-get purge libreoffice*
sudo apt-get autoremove

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.
