For a list of fixed bugs compared to 5.4.1 see the list of bugs fixed in RC1 and RC2: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/5.4.2/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/5.4.2/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs * Given the nature of the project, the complexity of the codebase and the high level of quality assurance upstream, it is preferable to SRU a minor release rather than cherry-pick selected bug fixes. * Libreoffice 5.4.2 (RC2, which is effectively the final release) has been available for users to test since 2017-10-04 in the official "LibreOffice Pre-Releases" PPA (https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/libreoffice- prereleases/+packages). [Test Case] * No specific test case, bugs fixed upstream hopefully come with unit/regression tests, and the release itself is extensively exercised upstream (both in an automated manner and manually) by a community of testers. The release went through 2 release candidates. * The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests, those should be run and verified to pass. * General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite should be carried out. [Regression Potential] * A new release with more than 100 bug fixes always carries the potential for introducing regressions, even though it's a bugfix-only release, meaning that no new features were added, and no existing features were removed. * A combination of autopkgtests and careful smoke testing as described above should provide reasonable confidence that no regressions sneaked in.
