- Dropping of debian/patches/tdf153059-after-ChangeHeaderOrFooter-the-c.patch
is not documented in the changelog and needs to be. If this is dropped because
it's now applied upstream, the changelog should say this.
- The changing of debian/*.symbols in an SRU is weird. I see no reason to have
these libraries emit a versioned dependency on libstdc++ themselves, this looks
to me like it should have been a change to the lintian overrides only; and I'm
not happy to sign off on this in an SRU without further rationale/explanation.
- There is no rationale given for disabling 'make check' on s390x and reducing
test coverage in an SRU is almost always a no-go.

Title:
[SRU] libreoffice 7.4.6 for kinetic
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in libreoffice source package in Kinetic:
Incomplete
Bug description:
[Impact]
* LibreOffice 7.4.6 is in its sixth bugfix release of the 7.4 line:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.4#7.4.6_release
* Version 7.4.4/7.4.5 is currently released in kinetic. For a list of fixed
bugs compared to 7.4.5 see the list of bugs fixed in the release candidates of
7.4.6 (that's a total of 74 bugs):
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/7.4.6/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/7.4.6/RC2#List_of_fixed_bugs
* 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_74/1717/
* 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. The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests that were
run and verified as passing.

https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-kinetic-ricotz-ppa/kinetic/s390x/libr/libreoffice/20230308_200234_9c534@/log.gz
* General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite were
carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented by:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlans/libreoffice
[Regression Potential]
* A minor release with a total of 74 bug fixes always carries the
potential for introducing regressions, even though it is a bugfix-only
release, meaning that no new features were added, and no existing
features were removed.
* A combination of autopkgtests and careful smoke testing as
described above should provide reasonable confidence that no
regressions sneaked in.
