I don't know if it will be suitable, but you can try Kexi (part of
Calligra suite, I believe; but you can install it separately). I
heard it is much better than LO Base, but I don't know enough to
verify that statement.
Kexi will become usable as soon as it supports composite (natural) keys.
It's a pity that Knoda, Rekall etc. have vanished or died without
anyone picking up the code behind the original developers, so that Kexi
is now the n-th re-implementation of the same functionality.

Alas, Rekall is no more. I used the Open Source version before
switching to Base and was quite pleased with it, less a few annoying
bugs. The Rekall report builder could run rings around the Base Report
Builder- especially in speed - but it was quirky to design with it.
Before it went dormant, the Open Source Rekall developer made some
announcement about moving to another organization (not The Kompany) to
continue development of his new ideas. For a few years after that, The
Kompany still had the stagnant version of Rekall available for sale from
their website. Now today, I see The Kompany is no longer on the net.
