Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libreoffice

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 and all went well except for the
replacement of open-office org base with libre office base. My database
previously created with OO base opens in Libreoffice, but when I try to
connect to a table that was linked to a mysql table, I got the message
that the driver failed load. I checked the director /usr/share/java and
realized the connector was not there (perhaps it was removed during the
upgrade), so I issued sudo apt-get install libmysql-java and it started
working again. I didn't even have to close libreoffice restart it.
