 FYI: it involved a subform which had a subform. Whether it is back ported or
 not, it does need to be mentioned in the release notes as a problem that is

What is the bug number? Sometimes a fix was not backported, because
the author did not have a 4.2 build to test and did not care that much
about the old stable branch. If this was the case, then we can still
do it.

 Here are three bug report numbers: 72696, 82150, 82720.  The first 
of these was mine and based upon 4.2.0.0 beta 2. (Bug 82151 is similar 
and has a list of 8 duplicate bug reports.)

Dan, *,


Lionel would need to comment, but with just the final bug-fix release pending, 
IMHO it is not going to make it into 4.2


Suspect this is one of those issues that really can not, and should not be back 
ported--as simply too much of the infrastructure in base changed between 4.2 
and 4.3--pushing it back to 4.2 with minimal testing this late in its cycle 
would leave it vulnerable to nasty regression.

Hi Dan,

   Here are three bug report numbers: 72696, 82150, 82720.  The first 
 of these was mine and based upon 4.2.0.0 beta 2. (Bug 82151 is similar 
 and has a list of 8 duplicate bug reports.)

Have you tested it with LO 4.2.7.1? I have downloaded the attached
database of bug 72696. Have tested it with LO 4.2.7.1. Works as expected.

The bug has been fixed since version LO 4.2.0.4 here. Could only
reproduce with LO 4.2.0.0rc1 and earlier versions of LO 4.2.

Regards

Robert

 Sorry folks for a false alarm. I had entered data on a form in the 
main form and subform. So there was no information in the subform's 
subform.  When I looked at other records in which all three had data in 
them (main form, subform, and the subform's subform), the data was where 
it should be. Changing records in the subform also changed was shown in 
its subform. So this is working correctly.  I just messed up in looking 
at the wrong records. So, there is no bug in 4.2.6.3 and 4.2.7.1 RC1.

[Libreoffice-qa] [ANN] LibreOffice 4.2.7 RC1 test builds available

2014-10-03 Thread Christian Lohmaier
Hi *,

for the upcoming new version 4.2.7, the builds for rc1 are now
available on pre-releases (some Win-helppacks still uploading)

4.2.7 is the last planned released for the LibreOffice 4.2 codeline.

See

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.2#4.2.7_release

for the complete schedule. (one additional rc is planned for 4.2.7)

Grab the builds from here here:

 http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/

If you've a bit of time, please give them a try  report any severe
bugs not yet in bugzilla here, so we can incorporate  them into the
release notes. Please note that it takes approximately 24 hours to
populate the mirrors, so that's about the time we have to collect
feedback.

The list of fixed bugs relative to 4.2.6 final (rc3/secfix) is here:

http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/bugs-libreoffice-4-2-7-release-4.2.7.1.log

So playing with the areas touched there also greatly appreciated  -
and validation that those bugs are really fixed.

Thanks a lot for your help,
Christian

 There was a bug (regression) involving Base first appearing in 
4.0.0 and fixed in 4.3.2.1. My question: will the bug fix be back ported 
to 4.2.7? If not, then Base 4.2.7 is not of much use to anyone with 
complex forms. FYI: it involved a subform which had a subform. Whether 
it is back ported or not, it does need to be mentioned in the release 
notes as a problem that is not solved until 4.3.2.1.

We have this section of the wiki page for 4.2:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.2#Most_Annoying_Bugs

It does say Most Annoying Bugs, so I wouldn't expect it to be
entirely inclusive of all bugs open against 4.2, but at least in this
case it sounds like this problem should be on the mab4.2 list.

Bigger-picture, I'm now wondering if we can programmatically determine
which documented bugs still affect the latest Still or Fresh release.
Hmm

(Thinking out loud:
- If a bug is still open, then it definitely could affect any builds.
- If the bug is resolved, target:X.y.z whiteboard tags that are
newer than the current release could indicate the bug affects that
build.
- Specific repro tests are buried in comments, and aren't structured
enough (yet) for us to scrape in a script.
)
