     @libreoffice Please push these into Debian, at least Debian Testing. Thank you!

     @jeffmcneill Hi! We don't maintain the Debian package repositories, but you can get .deb files from our website.

     @libreoffice Yep, but why not? If you have deb files, should be straightforward, so that everyone using APT gets the greatness that is your latest.

     @libreoffice I just donated via Liberapay. Unfortunately you've only enabled Paypal as a transaction provider, which does not respect privacy.

     @jeffmcneill If we start to maintain Debian's own repositories then in fairness to other distros, we'd be expected to maintain their's too, and with so many distros it'd be a lot of work (and we have very limited resources). In most cases upstream developers (like us) work on the software, and the individual distribution maintainers look after their repositories.

     @jeffmcneill Thanks very much! 😊 We'll look into enabling other payment options in our Liberapay account too...

     @libreoffice Well, Debian is the upstream for more distributions than any other. In any case, the 7.6.2 is the latest in Debian Testing. Good enough.

     @pegdhcp We need to wait for the mirrors to settle first and can then enable the update checker.

     @the5thColumnist We need to let the mirrors populate and check a few things before enabling the update checker. But as you're already following us here, you know there's an update so you can just download it 😊
