[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

 * This source packages matches the proposed SRU for kinetic handled at
     https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/2009354
   and its backport is currently provided by the LibreOffice Still PPA at
     https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/libreoffice-still/+packages

 * LibreOffice 7.3.7 (EOL since November 30, 2022) is currently released
in bionic-/focal-backports

[Scope]

 * Backport of
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/1:7.4.6-0ubuntu0.22.10.1

 * Backport targets are the Bionic/18.04, Focal/20.04 and Jammy/22.04
LTS releases to provide an official build of a more recent upstream
version of LibreOffice

[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.

 * 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 combination of autopkgtests and careful smoke testing as described
above should provide reasonable confidence that no regressions sneaked
in.
