The Document Foundation makes at least two versions of its office suite available to users. One is the most modern and up-to-date, including all the new features as they are implemented, but also some bugs. They also offer an older version, recommended for production teams, with fewer bugs but also fewer features. Both versions were updated a few hours ago, with LibreOffice 6.4.1 being the newest.
LibreOffice 6.4.1, the successor to version 6.4.0 , has arrived with over 120 bug fixes . The Document Foundation hasn't highlighted any of these as major or special fixes, but the sheer number of improvements in the form of bug removal suggests that the new version will perform much better and be more polished than the one released four weeks ago. Even so, the company doesn't recommend version 6.4.1 of its suite for production environments.
More than 120 bugs fixed in LibreOffice 6.4.1 and 80 in 6.3.5
The next recommended version for production teams is the 6.3 series. The latest release is LibreOffice 6.3.5, meaning that what was released a few hours ago is the fifth revision in the series. These five versions have addressed bugs, which is why the company continues to offer it as the most secure. In this update, The Document Foundation has fixed more than 80 bugs.
Regardless of the version of Linux your operating system includes—whether it's the most advanced or the one recommended for production environments—the update hasn't yet reached the official repositories of most Linux distributions. To use one of these versions, you currently only have one option: download the software from the official website , where you can download packages for Linux, Windows, and macOS . The Flatpak and Snap packages haven't been updated yet.
