I had an afterthought question for you : do you have libmysqlclient or
libmysqlcppconn installed on your Nadia box ? These might well be
necessary for the connector to work. As far as I can tell, when one
builds the connector it references the libraries on the system, but
does not copy them into the connector itself. If you have them
already, and it still isn't working, then it will be dependent on
building for each OS version and bit arch.
So, it seems to me that the way to go MUST be a native connector. Do you
know whether
MariaDB is doing anything in this direction?

The way to go, from what I have gathered, is :
- the Linux distribs will provide the connector for their respective
distrib versions of LO - since most don't ship the latest version of
LO, then you won't get one that will work until they move on to the
next version of LO ;
- on Mac and Windows, it is entirely up to the individual to try and
build the conenctor, independently of the official version of LO that
is released ;
- the LO dev team are waiting for the MariaDB team to get involved in
providing a connector in line with Monty Widenius' statement to help
out - from what I have seen recently, there is now actually a
libmariadbclient library - this is a requirement to building a
functional connector.
No-one that I know of is working on providing a mariadb connector for
the LO project at the moment, but I am not following the MariaDB project.
Personally, I am starting to learn postgresql administration and
maintenance, because it looks like the future of mysql connectivity in
LO is going nowhere fast. I feel like where I was when I first started
working with mysql 10 years ago, i.e. lost in a jungle of very
technical information ;-)

I have a MacBook (Intel)circa 2006 that originally had OS X 10.4
installed. It has 2 GB RAM and is 32 bit. I have installed Ubuntu 12.04.
Could this be used to compile a connector? If so, what has to be done to
do so? I really have no knowledge of any of the computer languages, so I
don't know if my offer to help will be useful.
