[Impact]

 * LibreOffice 6.0.6 is the sixth bugfix release of the fresh 6.0 line. Version 
6.0.3 is currently in bionic.
   For a list of fixed bugs compared to 6.0.3 see the list of bugs fixed in 
6.0.4, 6.0.5 and 6.0.6:

     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.0.4/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs
     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.0.5/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs
     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.0.5/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs
     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.0.6/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs
     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.0.6/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs
   (that's a total of 239 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 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 series of three minor releases with a total of 239 bug fixes always
carries the potential for introducing regressions, even though they are
bugfix-only releases, 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.
