Please consider this request to pull the latest LO 5.1 images inside the xenial repositories. Among the other problems, LO 5.1.6 fixes several crashes which make really difficult to work with Writer in Xenial. For a LTS I "want" the latest and more stable version of LO 5.1 to be available for everyone. I don't want to add a PPA if I can get this new LO version through a simple software update.
I know the latest updates of the 5.2 family are already available with snap packages, but LO 5.1 is preinstalled in the system, then it's the priority choice for the majority of users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646025 Title: libreoffice 5.1.6 for xenial Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: LibreOffice reached the "End of Life" on november 27, 2016.
