5.4.4.2. makes error during installion - "you need to have vista or more", it says.

Confirmed, 5.4.3.2 can be installed on XP, but 5.4.4.2 can't. The message is:
"LibreOffice 5.4.4.2 cannot be installed on this Windows version, Windows Vista or newer is required."

Release notes state that 5.4 will be the last to support WinXP, so we should not break this promise...
Comment 4 Aron Budea 2017-12-22 09:28:44 UTC
The 32-bit installer has been rebuilt, and it's been verified to install and run on Windows XP.
The download page already has the new version, though some mirrors could still take a bit of time to update.
