** Description changed:
[Impact]
* LibreOffice 24.8.4 is in its fourth bugfix release of the 24.8 line:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/24.8#24.8.4_release
* Version 24.8.3 is currently released in oracular. For a list of fixed bugs
compared to 24.8.3 see the list of bugs fixed in the release candidates of
24.8.4 (that's a total of ? bugs):
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/24.8.4/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/24.8.4/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs
24.8.4 RC2 is identical to the 24.8.4 release
* 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_248/1274/
* 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. The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests that were
run and verified as passing.

carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented by:

[Regression Potential]

+ * A minor release with a total of 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.
