Hi, I pushed backported (from groovy) libreoffice 7.0.1 in focal, hope it may be useful.

[oibaf]

As promised, Ubuntu 18.04/bionic is no longer updated. Make sure to upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04/focal or later to get newer PPA updates!

There must be some dependency collision in Focal/Mint 20:

trying to manually install them turns out that there are some focal and some from the repo:

anyone else affected or is it just my installation?

Edit:
strange, got itself fixed with the next stuff that became available in the repo...

[oibaf]

rewind thanks for the update.

[oibaf]

I have enabled all other architectures in the PPA, so armhf, ppc64el and s390x are also available on top of already available amd64, arm64 and i386.
Available on Ubuntu >= 20.04/focal.

Bionic packages will be removed soon from the PPA.

Hi,
I wanted to test Lavapipe from your build, but sadly it doesn't work.
When I update drivers, then opening Godot shows error

ERROR: Condition "err" is true. Returning: ERR_CANT_CREATE
at: _create_physical_device (drivers/vulkan/vulkan_context.cpp:351)
ERROR: Could not initialize Vulkan
at: DisplayServerX11 (platform/linuxbsd/display_server_x11.cpp:3775)

which means that no Vulkan devices was found

but when I compile from source mesa, and install it with `ninja install` command, then after executing command `./godot` shows this errors(which means that are problems but with lavapipe and mesa from PPA also should print this error)

X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 20 (X_GetProperty)
Atom id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 53
Current serial number in output stream: 53

In `ninja install` log I saw lines(maybe this files was omitted in your ppa?):

Installing src/gallium/targets/lavapipe/libvulkan_lvp.so to /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
Installing src/gallium/targets/lavapipe/lvp_icd.x86_64.json to /usr/local/share/vulkan/icd.d

Getting the issue where packages are held back. All from this PPA. Something wrong with the latest mesa?

sudo apt rdepends mesa-vdpau-drivers
mesa-vdpau-drivers
Reverse Depends:
kodi
kylin-video
vdpau-driver-all

The following packages have been kept back:

It's working now. Everything updated with no held back packages.

I believe this PPA is causing an issue with Wine because I can't run Wine without ppa-purge'ing OIbaf PPA away. Is anyone else running into this issue? I'm on Mint 20.
