There is actually 1 person doing the job - it's Bjoern (who works for
Canonical). 4.3 ppa should be available relatively soon.

Best,
Joel

Hi,
The setup from PPA is deemed more important in Ubuntu user community than
setup from *.deb files. A lot of people have already gotten used to setup
LibreOffice from PPA https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/
ppa .
But release 4.3 is not available over there up to now. This brings up the
question: Will new release be uploaded? And, when it can be expected?
As far as I know, Rico Tzschichholz is moderator of the PPA in
launchpad.net.
Thank you.


I had the PPA setup, but I removed it.  I prefer to decide which version
of LO it have installed.  PPAs, like Repositories, seems to make me feel
that I am not in control of which version I use. I kept getting the message
that I need to update/upgrade to a different version with the PPAs and
Repositories seem to, most of the time, remove the version I am using and
install an earlier one.

Now that I am not upgrading my desktop from Linux Mint 16 to 17, due to a
dependency issue that causes two printers not to produce the proper
coloring when printing photos and image, I am not getting an updates
anymore.  So I do not have that problem.

For now, I would rather install the exact version of LO via the terminal
than use a PPA.  That is just my opinion.  For many, it is more convenient
for the PPAs to do the work for them.  So, when I decide to go from 4.2.5
to 4.3.x, I will install it myself.  I have not tested 4.3.0.x on any
system.  I prefer to test it out on a system that is not my "production"
and default one till the version is tested on a Win7 and/or Ubuntu-based
boot of my laptop.
