[Impact]

 * LibreOffice 7.6.7 is in its seventh and last bugfix release of the 7.6 line:
     https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.6#7.6.7_release

 * This source packages matches the proposed SRU for mantic handled at
     https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/2065152

[Scope]

 * Backport of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/4:7.6.7-0ubuntu0.23.10.1

 * Backport target is Jammy/22.04 LTS releases 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://ci.libreoffice.org/job/gerrit_76/1898/

  * More information about the upstream QA testing can be found here:
    * Automated tests
      https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Automated_Tests
    * Automated UI tests

    * 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.

   Jammy/22.04 build at https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/libreoffice-still/+sourcepub/16153363/+listing-archive-extra
    * [amd64] ...
    * [arm64] ...
    * [armhf] ...
    * [ppc64el] ...
    * [riscv64] not available
    * [s390x] ...

 * General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite were carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented by: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlans/libreoffice

[Regression Potential]

 * A combination of autopkgtests and careful smoke testing as described above should provide reasonable confidence that no regressions sneaked in.
