Don't see where the you get the last line from. The Arch LO version is
"Version 4.0.3.3 (Build ID: 4.0.3.3 Arch Linux build-3)" on x86_64,
ia32 and ARM, which is current upstream release (AFAIK). LO on Arch
tends to follow upstream pretty quickly, albeit with a slight delay
for major "X.0.0" releases.

Certainly better than having to install a PPA in Ubuntu for a major
release of LO between Ubuntu releases.
