Build-time dependencies:
- nlpsolver, writer2latex both need a trivial classpath fix to build against
libreoffice 5.0, I will provide updates along with LibreOffice
- libreoffice-voikko builds fine against libreoffice 5.0.1
- octave-io has no buildtime dependency on libreoffice
- oolite ftbfs in unrelated objective-c compile and fails against libreoffice
4.4.4 too :/
As for the runtime testing: LibreOffice itself has more functionality
than one soul could manually test in one cycle, so I dont get to test
extensions myself (neither was that or could that ever have been done).
Against the 30.000+ users installing it from the LibreOffice ppa,
whatever I would do as manual testing would be pointless. Thus the early
push of these packages to the ppa -- and the close watching for bug
reports on both launchpad and upstream at TDF.

Title:
[FFE] LibreOffice 5.0.x for wily
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
FFE rationale:
* A current LibreOffice major version is a important part of every Ubuntu
release -- this is a feature goal
* relevant user visible changes:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.0
* under the hood changes:
https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2015-08-05-under-the-hood-5-0.html
build logs:
* https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847324
(amd64)
* https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847325 (i386)
The following testing has been done:
* Tested with users of the libreoffice-prereleases ppa since beta versions
* Tested with users of the LibreOffice Fresh ppa (ppa:libreoffice/ppa) since
5.0, including backports for 15.04, 14.04 and 12.04
* Also tested with the user of the LibreOffice 5.0
(ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-5-0), including backports
* This upstream release is the base of the Doc Viewer for the Ubuntu Phone
* The build has been tested to succeed on powerpc and armhf too
Current 2015-09-03 download stats for the current 5.0.1 libreoffice-core
package which was uploaded on 2015-08-28 (so covering 1 week):
wily: amd64 182, i386 13
vivid: amd64 6919, i386 1196
trusty: amd64 21153, i386 7795
So more than 30.000 installations, not counting those from the
libreoffice-5-0 ppa.
