[Libreoffice-qa] Some useful comments, Libreoffice-qa Digest, Vol 42, Issue 8

Tue Dec 9 09:19:41 PST 2014

Hello from Mexico, My Name is Enrique Moctezuma Ortiz Gutierrez, I been testing or using libre office 4.3.4 in Mandriva 2011 without and with upgrades, and simultaneously  i am using apache 411, with Icons properly installed and working for libre office, libre office replace the original 3.3 that mandriva give in power pack and mandriva not go beyond of 3.5.5 on repository, I been installing libre office  when you requesting in Mandriva a clean office, the user normally uninstall the version that come with power pack, but that action  simultaneously  uninstall the NSS library for networking, specially for mandriva 2011.... by the moment like user I just have requests for new options in Calc...     and I do not change yet from an optional installation   to another optional installation of Libre office to upgrade, in this case to beta version.   The help file included into the compressed file is superior than apache that not put anything, but need to be revised to become more friendly with new users.

LIFE (november 19th) a few were marked as RESOLVED WORKSFORME

see list here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65675#c235

I have still 13 mab4.2 that I'm not able to retest (most of them are Linux
or MacOS specific issues) so please I ask the help of other QA members to
finish the job.

IMHO a bug should not be resolved as WFM then, it is still a bug in the
release reported. If it is fixed in master then even better, hopefully
it was one commit that can be cherry-picked, so a bibisect indeed would
be welcomed.

Hi all,

The tag libreoffice-4.4.0.0.beta2 (AKA 4.4.0 Beta2) on the corresponding
branch libreoffice-4-4 has been created last week.
The branch will be used for fine tuning of the 4.4 codeline.

Branch-off marks feature freeze, see
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.4#4.4.0_release for
the detailed schedule of the 4.4.0 release.

Master will be used for development of LibreOffice 4.5.x

The following rules apply:
    + 4.4.0 beta phase:

        + any bug fixes are allowed without review
        + late features need approval by 3 people with different affiliation

    + 4.4.0 rc phase and later:

        + fixes need approval by one reviewer
        + late features need approval by 3 more people with different
affiliation

    IMPORTANT: Every developer is responsible for pushing the fixes into all
              appropriate branches. Note that we do not plan any merge
              from this branch to master or vice versa.

    Please, help use to make stable and usable release. If you want to build
    something cool, unstable, and risky, use master.

The 'libreoffice-4-3' branch is still active and will be used for the
4.3.6 bugfix release. Please read more at
      http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.3#4.3.6_release
      http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Branches
      http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Release_Criteria

Now, if you want to switch your clone to the branch, please do:

./g pull -r
./g checkout -b libreoffice-4-4 origin/libreoffice-4-4

To checkout the tag, use

./g fetch --tags
./g checkout -b tag-libreoffice-4.4.0.0.beta2 libreoffice-4.4.0.0.beta2

Hopefully it will work for you :-)  Most probably, you will also want to
do (if you haven't done it yet):

git config --global push.default tracking

When you do git push with this, git will push only the branch you are
on; e.g. libreoffice-4-4 when you have switched to it.  This will
save you some git shouting at you.

Linux distro packages might find source tarballs at
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/
They will soon be available from the official page together with the builds.

Attached is the list of changes against 4.4.0 Beta1

Happy hacking,
Christian
