Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * LibreOffice 6.4.4 is in its fourth bugfix release of the 6.4 line. Version 
6.4.4 is currently in focal.
 For a list of fixed bugs compared to 6.4.3 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 98 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 98 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.

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Heather, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libreoffice into focal-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/1:6.4.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1881007] Re: [SRU] libreoffice 6.4.4 for focal

[Heather Ellsworth]

Regarding the API/ABI stability, there is a main test that is called
during build that tests divergence from the API (unoidl-check run by
UnoApiTarget.mk at build time, that compares
offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl). Aside from this main API test, there
are several manual tests executed by TDF's QA team as well as several
automated regression tests that might uncover API discrepancies.

Regarding bug #1869561, we felt it is very important to fix the
libreoffice help functionality.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1881007] Re: [SRU] libreoffice 6.4.4 for focal

[Olivier Tilloy]

I think libreoffice does meet pretty well the requirements for
microrelease exception. The only point I'm not sure about is whether the
tests cover API/ABI stability, this should be researched and confirmed.

As stated in the description, upstream runs both automated and manual
testing for each new micro release (and the corresponding release
candidates).
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests has some
information. Additionally the autopkgtests for the package are pretty
extensive.

We have a long history of SRUing libreoffice microreleases to LTSes,
predating my taking over the maintenance of this package in 2017.

I'll let Heather comment on the impact of bug #1869561 (its importance
is set to High, if that's any indication).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1881007] Re: [SRU] libreoffice 6.4.4 for focal

[Steve Langasek]

libreoffice is not a package that has been identified as having a
microrelease exception according to
.
And the Test case listed here seems rather aspirational - "bugs fixed
upstream hopefully come with unit/regression tests".  Please speak
directly to how this update meets the standard for microrelease updates.

Also, it would help in terms of the justification of an SRU to have
clarity around what the bugs are that are worth fixing.  The only one
that I see referenced is LP: #1869561 - do you beileve this bug in
particular justifies taking the new upstream version?

   * A minor release with a total of 98 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.
