Public bug reported:
I'm working on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS x86_64 fully patched. I have LibreOffice
Base installed. I am trying to open a MS Access database.
I open LibreOffice Base. At Step (1) I select "Connect to an existing
database". At Step (2), which is the File Open dialog, I click browse:
Could not load the program library libodbc.so or it is corrupted.
The ODBC data source selection is not available.
At this point I am browsing to the *.mdb file. No database is selected.
====================
This is a drag. I am working with a company that specializes in fresh
water wells. I'm trying to get them to convert from Windows to Linux for
all the right reasons. Obviously they cannot convert if Linux software
cannot open the database.
====================
