Installed 3.3 on Ubuntu 10.04 using the Libreoffice repository.
Going into File-Wizards-Address Data Source the ONLY thing that is
selectable is "Other external Data Source" - there's NO option to
select an email addressbook. The data sources pane shows Evolution - I
don't use Evolution, I use Thunderbird.

Surely this is a CRITICAL function that's either completely missing or
broken?
How do I connect to the TBird addressbook?


What version of Thunderbird?

3.1.7

The option is also missing on my openSUSE11.1 system, which has
Thunderbird 3.0.11
But in my Win7 with Thunderbird 3.1.7 it is working.



Yep - I seem to recall I've noticed that before - it's a Distro build 
problem.


It is. Here is the original Ubuntu bug that I filed back in 2007:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/93546

Thunderbird works in standard OOo & LibreOffice (linux 3.3.0 versions),
however in OOo (and LO) there are still issues with using SeaMonkey
address books, see:
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=107809

Ubuntu LO 3.3.0 (Natty Alpha 11.04 - OOO330m19 Build6) is still missing
the address books listed in 93546.

LO 3.3.0 (standard .deb installed on Ubuntu 10.10) has the same issues
as 107809 - I reckon that they used the same code as OOo 3.3.0. But an
LO dev is aware of the issue & hopefully working on it.

Seems to be working (partially) in LO 3.3.3 final. See:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32948

Please test (linux only) & add to the report if you can. This is IMO
quite serious & it isn't working at all in 3.4.x.
