Re: CVS commit: pkgsrc/doc (libreoffice)

        pkgsrc/doc: CHANGES-2016 TODO

Log Message:
Updated misc/libreoffice to 5.1.0.3

I notice that this update is incompatabile with python 2.7, yet there are so many packages that are still stuck on older python for various reasons. The list of "stuck" packages is fairly long, but includes a few "major" ones, like py-sqlite2, py-cairo, gtk2+, and py-imaging

Wouldn't it make sense to keep the earlier libreoffice-5.0.4.2nb1 in the pkgsrc tree, in addition to the updated 5.1.0.3, for the benefit of those people (like me) who aren't yet in a position to update to python35?

(PS It would have been nice if the commit message had mentioned this new incompatability with Python-27 rather than having to find out during an attempted install!)
