Bug ID: 167916
Summary: Mac addressbook ODB file creation or access no longer
available or functional
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.0.0 alpha0+ master
Hardware: All
OS: macOS (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Base
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
In current production releases of LO, even LO dev daily master, it is no longer
possible to access or create an ODB file based on the macOS system addressbook.
Per Julien's comment 30 in bug 50626, the whole Mac addressbook framework is
deprecated and the driver code would need to be rewritten to take account of
the switch to Contacts framework instead.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start LO.
2. Try and create a new ODB file which connects to a Mac system address book
3. Watch as the wizard fails to establish a connection and produces an error
message (missing sdbc driver).
The connection to the data source "MacAbLoDev" could not be established.
The connection to the external data source could not be established. No SDBC
driver was found for the URL 'sdbc:address:macab'.
4. Alternatively, load a pre-existing MacAb.odb file (created with an older
version of LO before the loss of functionality). Same error message.
Actual Results:
Fails to access an existing MacAb.odb file or create a new Mac addressbook ODB
file.
Expected Results:
Allow user to create new file and/or access existing ODB file which connects to
Mac address book.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
