Comment 52 for bug 992232

Indeed this is the only solution but I don't get it how in the vanilla
version of libreoffice works and when it s packaged by Ubuntu doesn't since
Ubuntu 12.04. I'm talking about the main repocitory not the universe ...
Why is this happening?
One bad thing with the vanilla version is that it doesn't include the mysql
native connector and you have to use JDBC (slow) or ODBC to get a mysql
connection
