[Bug 1491964] Re: [FFE] LibreOffice 5.0.x for wily

 

For nlpsolver and writer2latex, which also need to be changed with this
upload:

  * fix build against LibreOffice 5.0 series

^ Please explain (shortly) in changelog what the change was, if it makes
sense to do so in changelog -- by that I mean, something more along the
lines of "update classpath to fix build against LibreOffice 5.0 series".
It's slightly longer, but precise changelog entries make for much easier
reviewing, both for sponsors and archive admins when during freezes (or
even for tracking down issues years from now).

Title:
  [FFE] LibreOffice 5.0.x for wily

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  FFE rationale:
  * A current LibreOffice major version is a important part of every Ubuntu release -- this is a feature goal

  * relevant user visible changes: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.0
  * under the hood changes: https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2015-08-05-under-the-hood-5-0.html

  build logs:
  * https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847324 (amd64)
  * https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847325 (i386)

  The following testing has been done:
  * Tested with users of the libreoffice-prereleases ppa since beta versions
  * Tested with users of the LibreOffice Fresh ppa (ppa:libreoffice/ppa) since 5.0, including backports for 15.04, 14.04 and 12.04
  * Also tested with the user of the LibreOffice 5.0 (ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-5-0), including backports
  * This upstream release is the base of the Doc Viewer for the Ubuntu Phone
  * The build has been tested to succeed on powerpc and armhf too

  Current 2015-09-03 download stats for the current 5.0.1 libreoffice-core package which was uploaded on 2015-08-28 (so covering 1 week):
  wily: amd64 182, i386 13
  vivid: amd64 6919, i386 1196
  trusty: amd64 21153, i386 7795

  So more than 30.000 installations, not counting those from the
  libreoffice-5-0 ppa.
