Public bug reported: [Impact]
* LibreOffice 7.1.4 is in its forth bugfix release of the 7.1 line: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.1#7.1.4_release * Version 7.1.3 is currently released in hirsute. For a list of fixed bugs compared to 7.1.3 see the list of bugs fixed in the release candidates of 7.1.4 (that's a total of 79 bugs): https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/7.1.4/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/7.1.4/RC2#List_of_fixed_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_71/1220/ * 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.
