Bug Description
I'm trying to open a spreadsheet file located in a NTFS partition, but LibreOffice gives an error saying the permission is denied. I am sure I have permission to edit that file and that partition because I could edit it with Gedit (it does not show Read-Only on the bar) and I copied and created new files (not with LibreOffice) in the same directory the spreadsheet is.
The NTFS partition is mounted at boot time using the following on /etc/fstab (redacted):
UUID=AAAAAAAAAA

@Simon: did you really mean to close that bug? Can you point to an upstream bug report / commit?
@Leonardo: is that bug resolved for you with the latest version of libreoffice in 18.04 (6.0.2-0ubuntu1)?
