Bug Description
[Impact]
* LibreOffice 7.2.6 is in its sixth bugfix release of the 7.2 line:
https:/
* This source packages matches the proposed SRU for impish handled at
https:/
and its backport is currently provided by the LibreOffice Still PPA at
https:/
* Previous backport of 7.1.7 handled at
https:/
* LibreOffice 6.4.7 (EOL since November 30, 2020) is currently released in focal.
* 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.
[Scope]
* Backport of https:/
* Backport target is Focal/20.04 LTS only to provide an official build of a more recent upstream version of LibreOffice
[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:/
* More information about the upstream QA testing can be found here:
* Automated tests
https:/
* Automated UI tests
https:/
* Regression tests
https:/
* Feature tests
https:/
* Launchpad testing. The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests that were run and verified as passing.
* [amd64] https:/
* [arm64] https:/
* [armhf] https:/
* [ppc64el] https:/
* [s390x] https:/
* General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite were carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented by: https:/
[Regression Potential]
* A minor release with a total of 52 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.
