OK, as we have reports that:
- it works on 32 bits
- does not work on 32 bits
I'm going to assume this is *not* related to 32/64 bits.
More fundamentally, I have the impression we are mixing several different bugs
here:
1) Do the right options appear in the "Address Book Data Source" wizard?
2) Do these options work as expected?
Each missing, and each not-working option could be a *different* bug. One of
these multiple bugs could be linked to 32/64 bits.
Especially, the libebook discussion should be relevant *only* to "does
Evolution appear in the list / work", and not to any other entry.
Wrt to 1):
1.1) evolution missing: duh... Not enabled in our builds :-|
In my testing (my libreoffice-3-6 development tree and LibreOffice
3.6.1.1 official amd64 .debs on Debian amd64 with package
libebook-1.2-12 version 3.2.2-3, file /usr/lib/libebook-1.2.so.12), I
have:
Mozilla / Netscape
Thunderbird/Icedove
LDAP
Other
The first two don't work, saying that no address book directory is
available. As this is very well possible (I don't use any of these
programs), this does not necessarily indicate a bug.
LDAP: seems to work, don't have an actual LDAP server to completely
test.
Other: seems to work, did not go all the way to a connection
I don't have KDE address book listed: duh, I don't have KDE installed.
I don't have evolution address book listed: I don't use Evolution, so
maybe not a bug. Maybe still a bug.
So I'm sending this back to QA:
1) Please open a new bug for each separate issue, and include me in CC
2) Make it a blocker of this bug
3) include exact reproduction instructions on what is needed
on a fresh system to create said Address Book
before LibreOffice is supposed to be able to use it:
a) install what program
(please not "all of KDE" or something like that)
b) do what in that program to create a new address book and
a few entries in it, ...
Also include exact settings (if any) needed in LibreOffice
(e.g. LDAP connection string, BaseDN, ...)
If needs connection to a server, try to find
a publicly available server.
E.g. for LDAP, the Debian LDAP directory may do (I don't know).
If the issue is "all entries missing" (or "all except Other"), that's probably
a single issue. Don't open a bug per missing entry. But if *some* are missing,
probably multiple issues (exception: Evolution, Groupwise and Evolution LDAP
are served by the same driver, so if all three are missing,l it is a single
issue).
Same for "some/all not working".

Bug description:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Over on the Ubuntu user's mailing list someone asked a question about
Thunderbird address data sources. So in the process of replying I check
on my systems & found:
OOo 2.1 installed from Openoffice.org files directly (installed on
Dapper) has:
File|Templates|Address Book Source| Administrate button
- Evolution
- Groupwise
- Evolution LDAP
- Mozilla / Netscape
- Thunderbird
- KDE address book
- LDAP address book
- Other external data source
OOo 2.2(rc3) (Ubuntu'ized Feisty version) only shows:
File|Templates|Address Book Source| Administrate button
- Evolution
- Groupwise
- Evolution LDAP
- Other external data source
Note: Thunderbird is installed & working on both machines.
I then installed OOo 2.2(rc3) (non-Ubuntu'ized version) on Ubuntu
Dapper using the files from OOo and the results are exactly the same
as my OOo 2.1 (non-Ubuntuized) version:
File|Templates|Address Book Source| Administrate button
- Evolution
- Groupwise
- Evolution LDAP
- Mozilla / Netscape
- Thunderbird
- KDE address book
- LDAP address book
- Other external data source
The Ubuntu version is missing:
- Mozilla / Netscape
- Thunderbird
- KDE address book
- LDAP address book
