Package: libmyodbc
Version: 3.51.09-1
Severity: normal


Hello 

The problem:  I use openoffice in order  to  access the mysql database
via the unicodbc driver (I have done  this successfully with different
versions  of Openoffice, mysql and unixodbc).   Now in this particular
setting  I can  create  tables but   I cannot  edit  them  afterwards.
According to some people at the  openoffice database interface mailing
list  this is a but  of  this particular version   of libmyodbc.  They
either  recommend a  downgrade to 3.51.06    or to upgrade  to another
version. The problem is that  stable/testing/unstable all contain  the
09 driver, I cannot install the oldstable version. Could you please do
something on that,  since for me  mysql is  useless right now.  I have
seen complains about that  on the OO mailing  list, but it  seems that
nobody sent a bug report to debian.




Regards


Uwe Brauer

With OOo 2.2, this now works out of the box.  It appears to have been fixed
by way of a new option in OOo to ignore table permission information from
the driver.

Not sure if it's right to consider this a bug in OOo in the first place, but
as it's fixed there I'm reassigning and closing.
