After more than six months of development, The Document Foundation He launched weeks ago version 7.2 of its office suite with new features such as a new command HUD to search and perform actions. Today just a week ago they launched the sixth point update of the series that continues to be recommended for production teams, that is, v7.1.6 with which they corrected 44 bugs. This afternoon, TDF launched LibreOffice 7.2.1, the first maintenance update for the 7.2 series.
On this occasion, the project has not written a long note talking about the new features. He has simply said that they have corrected 87 bugs and a little as usual, which will improve compatibility with different types of documents. Although they haven't mentioned it that way, it will probably improve compatibility with Microsoft Office documents.
LibreOffice 7.2.1 still not recommended for production teams
LibreOffice 7.2.1 Community, the first minor version of the LibreOffice 7.2 family aimed at technology enthusiasts and advanced users, is available for download at https://www.libreoffice.org/download/. This release includes 87 bug fixes and document compatibility improvements.
Once again, and it is easy to think that it will be this way forever since LibreOffice 7.1 was released, they have again remembered that there are two different versions, the Community and the Enterprise. The community one is the same as always, the one we download for free and without special support, while the business one receives direct support from the team and can request functions on demand.
In addition to the versions with different labels, there are also two options available for two types of users, the one that includes all the news but is less tested and the one that does not yet have everything new, but is more polished. LibreOffice 7.2.1 is not yet recommended for production teams, but can now be downloaded from the official website. Linux users can download DEB and RPM packages from there, but it is a good idea to wait for our distribution to update the packages from its official repositories.
