LibreOffice 6.4.5

The Document Foundation makes available to users at least three versions of its office suite at the same time: the preliminary version, whose v7.0 can now be tested, the most updated stable version, with all the news but less tested and with more bugs than yesterday was the v6.4.4, and another version with many more fixes that it recommends for production teams. For a few hours, the last two are the same, because TDF has launched LibreOffice 6.4.5.

Curiously, this, which has been officially communicated on Twitter, still does not appear like this on the project's download page, where it continues to appear as version recommended for production teams LibreOffice 6.3.6. In any case, anyone who follows the project knows that The Document Foundation recommends the new version for teams that need security and stability once they have released five maintenance versions, and that is exactly what they did yesterday.

The Document Foundation announces the availability of LibreOffice 6.4.5, which includes more than 100 bug fixes and improvements. All LibreOffice users should update to this version, which is optimized for use on production computers.

The funny thing is that, just yesterday, some distributions such as Ubuntu delivered v6.4.4 of The Document Foundation suite in their official repository. And, if we want to update as soon as they launch a new version, the only option we have is to download what they offer us in their Official Site, what they are DEB packages, RPM and code / binaries. The second best option is to use the Flatpak version, because it is the one that is usually updated sooner than the version in Snap. Those of us who are using the official repositories of our Linux distribution will still have to wait a little longer, a period that will depend on the development model or type of updates used by the operating system.

In any case, LibreOffice 6.4.5 is now available for all supported systems, which also includes Windows and macOS, and is already safe to use on work teams.

    Libre office to date must have corrected thousands of errors and they do not stop, and the worst thing is that there is no innovation, I do not doubt that the suite is good, but it lacks so much, and that they are publishing the thousands of errors that they no longer correct It's news, but I don't mean to be rude anyway, just that they've been fixing bugs for a long time and there are no improvements. Greetings

    I am giving libre office the opportunity and many times it closes and causes the system to hang a bit. I use Debian Buster. It touches force close from a terminal and when it reopens it recovers a part of the document. What I am going to is that in such a stable system this should not happen.
