Title:
[SRU] libreoffice 6.4.7 for Focal
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in libreoffice source package in Focal:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
* LibreOffice 6.4.7 is in its seventh bug-fix release of the 6.4 line:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/6.4#6.4.7_release
* Version 6.4.6 is currently released in focal. For a list of fixed bugs
compared to 6.4.6 see the list of bugs fixed in the two release candidates:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.4.7/RC1
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.4.7/RC2
(that's a total of 72 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.
[Testing]
* Upstream testing. Bugs fixed upstream typically include
unit/regression tests, and the release itself is extensively exercised
(both in an automated manner and manually).
* A recent set of upstream's automated jenkins testing can be found here:
https://ci.libreoffice.org/job/gerrit_64/1808/
* More information about the upstream QA testing can be found here:
* Automated tests
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Automated_Tests
* Automated UI tests
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/UITests
* Regression tests
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests
* Feature tests
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Feature_Tests
* Launchpad testing. The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests
that were run and verified as passing.

* General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite
were carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented
by: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlans/libreoffice
[Regression Potential]
* A minor release with a total of 72 bug fixes always carries the
potential for introducing regressions, even though it is a bug-fix-
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.
