I tried LibreOffice 3.4 (pre-release) and it works with 'csv' to 'ods' conversion, as described in http://www.mail-archive.com/users@libreoffice.org/msg03444.html ./soffice.bin --headless --convert-to ods /tmp/test.csv convert /tmp/test.csv -> /opt/libreoffice/program/test.ods using calc8 Overwriting: /opt/libreoffice/program/test.ods (in my case I still have the encoding issues described in the above URL).
