Bug Description
Synaptic describes the tora package as providing access to MySQL and PostgreSQL and everything else through ODBC. However, when I installed tora, the only "connection provider" available was MySQL.
Fixed by installing libqt4-sql-psql and libqt4-sql-odbc. Shouldn't these packages be dependencies for tora, or at least recommended extra packages?
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
2.1.3-1build2
3) What you expected to happen
a. tora's connection provider menu would include MySQL, PostgreSQL, and ODBC
b. when installing tora via apt-get, it would automatically install all of the libqt4-sql-* packages needed for (a) to happen,
or at least mention them as recommended extras
4) What happened instead
a. tora's connection provider menu showed MySQL as the only option
b. apt-get did not install all of the required libqt4-sql-* packages, nor did it suggest them.
