The file is in the package libmysqlclient-dev (5.1.41-3) which I did not have installed and was not a dependency (I suppose it shouldn't be, being a -dev). I filed against openoffice.org-base because Base is where I saw the bug, and I assumed it may be related to the efforts of fix the last bug

The original launchpad report doesn't mention data loss, but it does indicate a bug in Nautilus which causes 'inconvenience'. However, Windows users probably have similar but not identical problems. According to that report 1. NTFS is case-sensitive, so the underlying file system is case sensitive
