Comment 24 for bug 1389858

My greatest fear now is all those people who still have not realized this is happening, and, are still in the process or mangling spreadsheets. Until Libre Office releases a patch retroactively fixes all 4.2.7.2 installations on all Ubuntu 14.04 installations, AND pops up a special window when people try to sort in future, telling them that "sorry for months you have not been sorting spreadsheets but rather mangling them, don't worry though, now it works correctly again, sorry for the loss of years of work" then these people will go on mangling spreadsheets

This is to the point of saying Ubuntu 14.04 should be withdrawn to prevent any further damage. It is just not worth it if it damages years of work.

If this is not the end of LibreOffice, I do not know what will be.
