Bug #: 54242
Summary: offer partial update for minor updates
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Installation
AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: alexandre.f.dem...@gmail.com
While it is a good thing to see LO package size being shrinked, being able to
perform partial updates would save a lot of time and of bandwidth for users.
As a first idea, I would suggest something similar to what Firefox is doing
(https://wiki.mozilla.org/UpdateGeneration):
- When a minor release (mostly for security or stability reasons) is available
(A.B.C to A.B.C+1), we should download only a partial update.
- When a major release is available (new features), we should download a
complete update or upgrade.
