Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer tab stops setting keeps reverting to .5" (solved)

Well that tab stop bug must have happened in 4.0.3 or 4.0.4, since it
was not in 4.0.2 Debian based install[s].  Yes, it is best to upgrade to
the newest of the versions that is not marked as an "early adopter" version.

"They" changed the graphic, so it is easier to read.

3.6.7 is the "conservative" version
4.0.5 is the "recommended" version
and
4.1.0 is the "early adopter" version.
