Description: The install script for installing libreoffice-still installs the incorrect version when installing or updating LibreOffice through the Chocolatey package manager. "choco install libreoffice-still" installs version 7.3.4 which is the version for libreoffice-fresh. The version for libreoffice-still should be 7.2.7. Reference this discussion on the Chocolatey-Community GitHub page: https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/discussions/1937 Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run Powershell as administrator. 2.Run command "choco install libreoffice-still or "choco upgrade libreoffice-still" 3.Wrong version is installed. Actual Results: Installing or updating the libreoffice-still packages installs or updates LibreOffice to version 7.3.4 which is the libreoffice-fresh version number. Expected Results: Installing libreoffice-still should install version 7.2.7 as of July 2022. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Not currently logged in on Windows, however it is installed on Windows 10 Pro N x64 21H2 at LibreOffice version 7.3.4. Other information: It is confirmed not to be a problem with wget or Chocolatey. Reference this discussion on the Chocolatey-Community GitHub page: https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/discussions/1937 "It appears that the update script that libre office uses is putting out only the 7.3.4 version. It appears to be a bug in their website. This is not a problem with the package updater."
V Stuart: it seems a kindda of dup of tdf#149838. I must recognize, I understand why the reporter of tdf#149838 considered this as a bug. Usually, update is for the same branch so when using 7.2.7, you shouldn't be proposed 7.3.4. Now, if the rules changed, no pb, I think it's good idea since indeed 7.2.7 is EOL but I don't see anything about rule change. Moreover, either 7.2.7 shouldn't be proposed in https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/ or 7.2.7 should be indicated EOL and 7.3.4 the "still version" and not for "early adopter".
@cloph, any perspective on the check for update correctness for this (via chocolaty) and see also bug 1439838 -- to me trivial and will be OBE with release of 7.4.0
Thanks for the attention to the issue. Perhaps this isn't a bug, since I wasn't aware that 7.2.7 went EOL on 22 June. Though the website still indicates 7.2.7 as the stable version without an obvious notice that it is EOL. Maybe the release schedule for making 7.3.4 the still version can't be coordinated exactly to coincide with the EOL date of the now EOL still version 7.2.7 and that's perfectly okay, this is non-paid software after all. Thank you!
Dear Mark C., To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.
