Yes, but from libreoffice-java-common 6.3.x -> 6.4.x and that only
because libreoffice-java-common gained explicit dependencies on them
since they "obviously" are needed for the Java stuff :-)

(They formerly were in "ure", and are supposed to be moved to the extra
packages - they "survived" in ure which gives us this mess.)

If you mean the actual "libreoffice" package. That has no contents and
is empty and it doesn't force any version except for libreoffice-core
(which I don't remember the rationale for, but there must have been
some). So it can usually be ignored ;-)

True... :-)
