Public bug reported: [Impact]
* LibreOffice 6.2.4 is in its fourth bugfix release of the 6.2 line. Version 6.2.4 is currently in Eoan. For a list of fixed bugs compared to 6.2.3 see the list of bugs fixed in the two release candidates: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.2.4/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/6.2.4/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs (that's a total of 115 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 115 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. ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) Status: Fix Released ** Affects: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) Status: Fix Released ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: High Assignee: Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) Status: Triaged ** Affects: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: High Assignee: Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) Status: Triaged ** Also affects: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Undecided => Critical ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Critical => High ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu Disco) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson) ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Disco) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: libreoffice-l10n (Ubuntu Disco) Status: New => Triaged -- 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/1830691 Title: [SRU] libreoffice 6.2.4 for disco Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libreoffice-l10n package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libreoffice source package in Disco: Triaged Status in libreoffice-l10n source package in Disco: Triaged Bug description: [Impact] * LibreOffice 6.2.4 is in its fourth bugfix release of the 6.2 line.
