Hi :) In Ubuntu the PPA version of 3.4.5 isn't rc. Maybe the team that makes it distro-specific changed the name slightly? I thought most popular distros have LibreOffice in their repos? I think a lot of people prefer to download from the official site rather than their repos even if they aren't using the ultra-latest version.
I think "don't care" is the wrong way around. I think they expect Gnu&Linux users to be more like themselves and more familiar with the types of details that devs know well and point&click users such as us (well, me anyway) probably don't.

I thought they just didn't care about Linux. m.w.c. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
