            Bug ID: 138804
           Summary: Check for updates does not respect channel
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Installation
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: bugs.documentfoundation.org at 12pd.com

The Check for Updates feature does not respect the channel.

On first run, or within 6.4.7, in any LibreOffice application use Help, Check
for Updates. The dialog will offer 7.0.3 as an update.

This should not be happening. If I install and use the "Still" version then I
don't want to be offered the "Fresh" version immediately upon opening it or
every time the check for updates is run.

Perhaps an option within the updater to offer the Fresh version IF it is set,
but it should not be recommended for all users. Even the download page doesn't
recommend the Fresh version for most users, so it shouldn't be an encouraged
update for the non-technical users who want the most stable supported version.
