Category of the issue

Installation issue.

Brief description of your issue

LibreOffice v24.2 has been listed in the winget manifest repository by #137511 and #137519

BUT... the links from @Exorcism0666 in the manifests are hammering again the NON-CDN archive hosting server instead of the CDN distribution servers.

This was WinGet packages issue #99420 last year, the manifests were fixed then and now it happens again.

And a side bug: upgrading from LibreOffice 7.6.4.1 to 24.2.0.3 via winget does not work... it gives me this error:

PS C:\Windows\System32> winget upgrade

Steps to reproduce

see issue #99420 from March 2023

Actual behavior

winget downloads from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/
Please note that the downloadarchive server is not backed by a full CDN, recent files have a limited development/testing-only CDN but older files are not mirrored at all to the development CDN

Expected behavior

winget should download from https://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/
