Bug Description
Hi! LibreOffice Calc supports the CoinMP Linear Solver, which is an excellent solver to be used in spreadsheets and makes LO Calc superior to other office suites in that regard.
However, the build provided by this PPA does not come with CoinMP Solver enabled (see Tools > Solver > Options). I posted a question at Ask LibreOffice and I was informed that CoinMP is enabled by default during build and maybe the PPA maintainers chose to disable it.

In fact, I built LibreOffice from source and CoinMP was there. However, building from source is not convenient and I'd like to use the PPA.
Is it possible that CoinMP Solver be included in future builds of LibreOffice provided by this PPA?
I am currently using LibreOffice 7.0.3.1 on Ubuntu 20.04.

I see that CoinMP support was disabled in Ubuntu (it is enabled in Debian) 5 years ago¹, because of dependency issues. This could/should probably be revisited.
