Public bug reported:

Links to external files (csv) cannot be modified using the regular "Edit
-> Links -> Modify" option.

Reproduced in ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04 with libreoffice versions 3.6.2 and
4.0.4 on 64-bit machines.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

1) open a new calc document
2) Insert a new sheet through "Insert->Sheet From File...", choose any csv file 
(e.g., test1.csv) and link data.
3) Go to "Edit->Links" where the inserted link in step 2 will show up (path to 
test1.csv). Try to modify the link to point to a different csv file (test2.csv) 
using the "Modify" option.
4) The file path will appear to be modified but the new data never shows up on 
the sheet, even after pressing the update button.
5) Saving the document, closing and reopening will result in the link pointing 
to the first csv file (test1.csv).

Apparently the file path to the new pointed csv file (test2.csv) is not
being saved properly.
