Hi all,
I was (ab)using the HTML code of the download page to understand which
was the last official (still and fresh) versions of LibreOffice
available to start (if needed) the build of a new version of the
LibreOffice AppImages from the .deb sources. I was also watching the
prerelease versions sometimes.
I saw it coming, but failed to ask beforehand: what's the recommended
way to understand which is the latest version available?
Parsing
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ would
still be acceptable/trustworthy? What about for prereleases?
For the releases, how about:
curl
"https://git.libreoffice.org/infra/libreofficeorg/+/refs/heads/master/data/releases.toml?format=TEXT"|
base64 --decode
If you bumped the Python requirement of loaih to 3.11, you could even use the tomllib module to
parse the TOML data.
What happened to still and fresh? Are they still a thing and they can
be defined as 2nd last and latest major versions (26.2 and 25.8, now)
available on the downloadarchive?
Marketing replaced those terms with "Latest" and "Previous" over two years ago.
