Thanks to all those who have been involved in getting this latest release to Ubuntu's users.
As I regular user of LibreOffice I updated to version 1:6.4.5-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 and so far have not seen any issues. Obviously with such a complex package I cannot test every function or capability of LibreOffice but I'm marking this issue as being fixed and the SRU as verified as my own documents appear to work fine with this update. If anyone sees an issue with this release then please revert the tags which I'm changing now to indicate a successful SRU. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-focal ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-focal -- 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/1886692 Title: [SRU] libreoffice 6.4.5 for focal Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in libreoffice source package in Focal: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * LibreOffice 6.4.5 is in its fifth bugfix release of the 6.4 line. Version 6.4.4 is currently in focal. For a list of fixed bugs compared to 6.4.4 see the list of bugs fixed in the two release candidates: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.4.4/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.4.4/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs (that's a total of 96 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. [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. Each minor release normally goes through two 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 minor release with a total of 96 bug fixes always carries the potential for introducing regressions, even though it is 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.
