Huh?

$ rmadison -s testing libreoffice
libreoffice | 1:7.0.1~rc1-1    | testing    | source, armhf
libreoffice | 1:7.0.1~rc1-1+b1 | testing    | amd64, arm64, armel, i386,
mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x

It is in testing so eglible for backporting.


And it is the current version. Whether it's an RC or not is totally
irrelevant for me, I did 6.4.x RCs all the time without anyone
complaining. This is not some .0.0 or 0.0 RC but 7.0.1.


(and it is not backported to stable but backported *for* stable for
buster-backports. Noone is forced to install it, people can stay at 6.1.5)


(And I want to get rid of a version which will not get any updates anyway.)


Regards,


Rene
