For the next SRUs, if you have to add a patch or make other changes to something under debian/, please document it so that the SRU review can be quicker. In this particular case here, there is a patch being added that has no DEP3 header, no upstream bug, no origin, etc, which makes the review take more time.
For the record, Rico pasted this information to me on irc, about this patch: <ricotz> ahasenack, the commit itself points to the troublesome bug report and the mailing list discussion of this aarch64 regression, as seen at https://git.launchpad.net/~libreoffice/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/log/?h=wip/lunar-7.5 Related: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/e2397a57ca66a06950a669a3971fbc55b8f5f979%5E%21 ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Lunar) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-lunar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2037274 Title: [SRU] libreoffice 7.5.7 for lunar Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libreoffice source package in Lunar: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * LibreOffice 7.5.7 is in its seventh bugfix release of the 7.5 line: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.5#7.5.7_release * Version 7.5.6 is currently released in lunar. For a list of fixed bugs compared to 7.5.6 see the list of bugs fixed in the release candidates of 7.5.7 (that's a total of 14 bugs): https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/7.5.7/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs 7.5.7 RC1 is identical to the 7.5.7 release * 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. [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_75/1697/ * More information about the upstream QA testing can be found here: * Automated tests https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Automated_Tests * Automated UI tests https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/UITests * Regression tests https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests * Feature tests https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Feature_Tests * Launchpad testing.
