Description Christopher Yeleighton 2018-03-05 19:38:49 UTC
The advertised URL syntax for connection properties for PostgreSQL is wrong and it is going to be discontinued.  

Is: postgresql:$host:$port/$database
Should be: host=$host:$port dbname=$database

The current syntax does not work when the database name is different from the user name.
Comment 2 Tomáš Chvátal 2018-03-07 10:15:53 UTC
This is problem in core libreoffice database component as such it is not affected by how we produce it in openSUSE.

Report this to upstream developers on https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/
