- Update to version 2.4.11:
  * OCT interface: fix reading shared formula results (bug #52875)
  * OCT interface: fix a rare case of nested text cell XML with
    special formatting attributes (bug # 53298)
  * OCT interface: don't over-allocate memory when reading text
    cells in xlsx (bug 533910, credits to Peter Giles
  * OCT interface: return correct date values for .ods file (bug
    [#53401])
  * dbfwrite.m: don't prepend space before string values
  * bug #53510: fix detection of Java version for Java > 8
  * OCT interface: (part of) bug #53459, i.e. reading .xlsx files
    with a more complex mix of chartsheets, macrosheets and
    worksheets, and exploring such files with xlsfinfo. Writing to
    such files however isn't guaranteed to be bug free. However,
    other interfaces (POI, UNO) provide a workaround.
  * COM interface: clearly distinguish between worksheets and e.g.,
    chartsheets when referencing sheets by number.
